|   Need MC cartridge for MA Cotter transformer | kirklamb
Sep 9, 2002 12:34 PM | | I have a MA Cotter (that's Mitchell A. Cotter Co, Inc) MK-2 transformer. It was made in 1981. Mine is the "P" format, which was a match for my GAS (Great American Sound) "Sleeping Beauty" moving coil cartridge (also about 20 years old). The cartridge has lost it's cantilever arm. So I either have to get a new cartridge (that will match the transformer), or find someone who can repair the cartridge. I have tried to find Mitch Cotter or the remnants of his company, and GAS, but both seem to have gone the way of the dinosaur. I would appreciate any advice. Thank you. |
| any of the good MCs now available | hifitommy
