Who Is An Expert On Acutex Cartridges?


I am curious. What happened to the company? Did the 320 III LPM or the 320 III STR come first? I also know of a 420 STR. Where are they now?

I worked for their biggest dealer in early 70’s ,
He bought them by the hundreds , the 320’s were very good and cost him about 30$ .
He sold almost every cart made , my personal favorite was the Empire ED9 followed closely by Pickering 4000 .
Best bang for the buck ever was Shure 91ED .
I had my 420STR re-tipped by Axel a while back with a Shibata stylus...much quieter presentation. I could not be happier!
The 320 in all its variations was/is an induced magnet type.  If memory serves me, the 400 series (including the 420) were conventional MMs.  Probably different from the 300 series in sonic character.
For sure and being IM type one of the main reason. ACUTEX M320 STR III is the best of them all in my system. I bought one 5 years ago as guided by Raul the Seeker, Dave the Messenger and Vic the Magician
