Up for sale is my Grado Timbre Series Master3 cartridge in excellent, fully functional condition. Hand-built in Brooklyn, this premium cartridge sits near the pinnacle of Grado’s Timbre lineup, utilizing an intricate curing process and an wood housing to expertly control unwanted resonances.

It features a 5-piece OTL cantilever structure that achieves a 5% reduction in tip mass compared to the Platinum or Sonata models, yielding spectacular transient response, immense detail retrieval, and that signature lush, fatigue-free Grado midrange.

  • Hours played: Approx. 25 hours (used for demos only). The diamond tip and cantilever are in perfect shape.
  • Condition: as good as new
  • Includes: Original box, papers, and mounting hardware.
