    Got it into my mind that I'd like one of these cartridges.

    Anyone know of a UK supplier?

    Thanks.

    I'm pretty sure Walrus Systems in London do :cool:

    I'm quite interested in the 105 myself. That and the Zyx R100H as contenders to others in that price bracket.

    I bought my 901 from him. He is reliable and based in Holland, so his prices include VAT. BTW, Shelter now have a new range of cartridges. Here's the Shelter 7000:

    So how would you rate the 901 at 900 euros?

    I'd say it was as steal Baudrillard, if you value natural timbre and balance over fireworks.

    I bought mine from the States, as the guy in holland kept a number of people I know waiting, but still considered the 901 to be head and shoulders above the carts I could have bought in the UK for £850.
