Koetsu Red T Moving Coil Cartridge

Here we have a Koetsu Red T Moving Coil Cartridge which comes in fully working condition, complete with original box. We sold this earlier this year and the diamond ‘fell off’ when the buyer received it. It has therefore been retipped by Van den Hul and is unused since.

Koetsu Say….
Yoshiako Sugano’s first commercially available cartridge the one that cemented his reputation as a master and made Koetsu synonymous with high-performance record replay was the Rosewood Standard. The Red T is the direct descendent of that classic cartridge. Its rosewood body makes for a lighter cartridge than the Black Goldline, making it more compatible with modern tonearms, a remarkable tracker that reduces surface noise, and produces a sound with richness and depth, great focus, smoothness and elegance.
