Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:7089895 | Brand: GE |
| Color: Green | Model: VR 1000 |
If you've been following the Audio forums on vintage carts, then you know the recent discovery by Audiophiles of the 1960 GE VR 1000 cartridge. This cartridge was designed by Peter Prichard, who would go on to design the ADC line of cartridges.
It seems that the VR 1000 is a forgotten gem that is now coveted by Audiophiles, especially overseas. However, I will only ship to the USA.
The VR 1000 is different than most other vintage carts because of the tremendo...us "energy" that it generates at the tip. This is similar to the famous London Decca cartridges that cost hundreds of dollars extra. This provides a real sense of "liveness" and "urgency" that is just great for rock and roll.
I find that the midrange is quite "real" with the VR 1000. Great for The Beatles!!
This cart will come with TWO working styli that will last you for a long, long time.
+++++++USA Buyers ONLY, USA Bidders ONLY, no Exceptions, sorry!
Cheap $10 shipping.
Good luck bidding.
