has an integrated preamplifier in an otherwise largely plastic design.
often
thought of this concept. keeps the distance the low voltage cartridge
signal
has to travel to a minimum, outside of the deck even zero, and allows for
an
integrated ****elding system, so no additional ground wire. depending on
the
quality of the preamp and the level of signal protection (that is, if
metal
foil is used to ****eld the preamp from 50/60 Hz interference by mains
wiring
in and outside the deck), it could be theoretically sma****ng. basicly it's
the crystal cartridge revisited, and because its performance is derived
from
its design rather than from sophisticated designs not to perform, it comes
at just $100.
by the looks of the ad the cartridge isn't much, and you couldn't replace
it, because it doesn't have a detachable headshell on an S-arm, which
could
be at least theoretically worth the try, possibly.
