Well it's now a 900 Euro cartridge, but that's not the issue. It's a big heavy cartridge that's probably not going to work on the Pro-Ject arm anyway. You need something with more adjustability that can accommodate an old school cartridge like the SPU. You usually see these cartridges mounted on...

This strikes me as something akin to putting a Porsche engine into a Lada. ;) jeff

Pretty cool. I've never seen a factory white one before. jeff

Just the ticket for those late night DJ parties. :) jeff

The low damping factor and high output impedance of these budget single ended amps really aren't a great match for modern vented speakers. Bass will quite often sound bloated and will lack definition. And the low power means there's very little headroom. jeff

So stock up on NOS 5U4GB's and don't worry about getting crappy new production 5AR4's. jeff

There's always the "yellow sheet" mod, if it's compatible with the Manley amps. Are these amps wired point-point? jeff

Appears to be cathode biased, so there's a good chance the 6P3S-E's will be running way too hot in your amp. I don't see anything on their website about running other output tubes. jeff

Maybe 10 years ago. ;) jeff

That's a great deal if they're matched. jeff

That's ebay.co.uk just in case anyone's interested. Looks like it's in good condition, with a nice tonearm. jeff

It's running on borrowed time now. ;) jeff

Check the wallwart power supply for voltage. Maybe it's dead. jeff

Your amp appears to have a phono stage. Far left input on back panel. jeff

The internet seems to think it's from a Pioneer PL-550.
