Zyx Omega-G for $2650?

(1/3) > >>

BSD2000:
I'm debating on holding off from buying a new turntable and getting a new cartridge instead.

There is a Zyx Omega Gold on Audiogon right now for $2650. It has gold wire coils, low output (.24mv) and is brand new. It retails for $6500 new.

If I did buy it, my R100H would be put up for sale since I wouldn't need two good cartridges.

Should I buy it?   :-\

BSD2000:
Too late. :) I just got off the phone with the dealer. The cartridge should be here by Saturday. Just in time for hurricane Irene. ;D

Here's a review of the Zyx Omega-G cartridge: http://positive-feedback.com/Issue49/omega.htm

I still plan on upgrading to a Rega P7 or P9 sometime in the future.

Once I receive the cartridge, I'll make an unboxing video and record what it sounds like when it plays it's first song. Check back on the forum for updates.

It's here! It's beautiful! But now I have to wait until huricane Irene passes before I can install and hear it.  :(

For now, you can see more pictures on the front page here: http://www.vinylaudio.net/archives/45

lol

For what is cost, It better open up a wormhole.

The rain stopped from the hurricane, but the wind is still really strong. I better wait until the wind dies down before going out there and trying it out. I don't want to create some sort of a time/space vortex, plus have to deal with all this wind.
