Does anyone have a source for replacement or
repair of phono cartridges. Have an Astatic cartridge
in a '47 Zenith AM/phono that is bad. My web inquiries
haven't located any replacement cartridges or repair
services but there must be someone who has a stock or
fixes these things.
Thanks all,
Scott

Does anyone know where I can get the right stylus for an Audio Technica AT98E cartridge or both the stylus and cartridge together...either one. Or can you tell me of a cartridge/stylus that is recommended as a replacement for the AT98E. (It is the cartridge that came with my linear-tracking turntable). Thanks. Vince

Sorry folks, but I just tried to call Steve in Florida and found out that he was deceased!

Does anyone else know who rebuilds these old cartridges???

We are also preparing a new web page under LeeElectronics.com. This page is not available right now, but should be on line March 1st - the good lord willing..... Thanks for the opportunity to be of help. Art Lee - Send me the model number of the Zenith unit and we will search for the right cart.

I am also working on a Zenith 78/AM unit and need a cartridge.Model#:6R866Z. I have had no luck either,but I do have some info that may help us both.
The original Zenith cart #15780
The Astatic replacement is 97-2 (red & green).
The element is "coil", which I've never heard of for this old of a unit.
Let me know if you can find something & I'll share any info with you too.

Hi everyone

Just come across your qery and as our company in the UK has 50 years of knowledge of the stylus cartridge business I thought I drop you a line.

The Zenith cartridge you are looking for was also called the Cobra. Green was for LP and Red was for 78rpm. We have just sold our last supply of these cartridge/styli and they are no longer available, but you can try one of our dealers here in the UK: http://www.jukeboxservices.co.uk/

HI- I have one of those 1948 Zenith AM/Phono units too.. I bought some of those Cobra's from Ed Saunders, and you can also get them from "Victoryglass.com."

They were used in early Wurlitzer Jukeboxes. I have a model 1250 Wurlitzer (1950)that uses 2 of those carts. It has 2 tone arms to play both sides of the record. I also have a model 2150(1957) that uses the cobra setup. I think they cost around $25.00 or so.They were used up into the early 60's.

hope this helps,Dennis.
