This is a Benz Micro Glider H2. It's a High-Output Moving Coil cartridge.
The H2 is the later version of this cart and the output is 2.5mV.
It will work with any phono stage; the output is high enough that you don't need an MC phono stage or a step-up transformer.
The cart itself is quite heavy at 13 grams.
I sent it to Soundsmith a few years ago because the cantilever had a little flex. They tightened it up and said the tip was fine and didn't need re-tipping. So this is all original.
This is one of 3 carts that I've used over the past few years. I'm not sure how many hours are on it, but a decent number. But it still has lots of life yet. It's the best sounding cart I've ever owned, and I've had much more expensive ones. It seems the most all-around balanced to me, unlike a Koetsu that I owned or a couple of Van den Huls.
Here are the specs:
Output: 2.5 mV
Tracks: 1.5-1.7 g
Loads: > 1k-47k Ohms
Unloads: 95 Ohms
Compliance: 15
Sorry, no international sales. I'll cover Paypal fees.
Unfortunately, I can't find the original box, but I'll ship it to you for a flat $10, insured, in a hard cartridge box (actually made for a Denon) that the cart screws into to keep it safe.
