K9? Basik? What IS this?

Did anyone but me buy a Linn Trac/Trak/Track yellow cartridge?

No you're not alone, I had one my first MC. It was on my Planar two. I used it until it started to mistrack, I was told that it was so worn they could barely see the stub.

I heard an 80s/90s Planar 3 with Karma on once; sounded superb. The Karma was a premature trade-in from an LP12 owner who was seduced by Troika talk/foot tapping, so the Rega deck vs. cartridge cost ratio wasn't quite as bizarre as it could have been.

I've just put a Linn K9 (grey body) into the classifieds for a reasonable charitable donation, if anyone's interested.

Is that a Kégresse?

Is that a Kégresse?

Yes, Citroën P19B, IIANM.

Highly relevant in an OEM A-T MM cartridge thread that got off topic via mention of a Supex OEM MC that didn't meet the OEM specification and therefore got painted yellow and called Trak.

MisTrac surely?

At last, something suitable for use on this sad little island's disintegrating road network.

No it didn't track.

It 'half' did.
