Beautiful box, knew about it but never saw a picture of it. I didn't get it because I already have 3 of the cartridges and Rockitman is catching up

The quality is excellent, better than the photo.

I almost went with that one but figured I might need room for 10 carts. SPU 85 on the way..looking at two NOS 90’s on eBay. Not sure if I should buy from Hong Kong or japan seller..
I’m SOL on 95. No longer available from Ortofon
Does anyone have any insight as to whether Ortofon will be offering a 100th Anniversary G Series SPU this year?
I've had mostly good luck with 2Juki. I had an issue with the headshell leads on Ikeda headshell immediately breaking and he refused to give me any credit or send new leads.
A new masterpiece from Ortofon
A perfect combination of Japanese and Danish craftsmanship and technique, the new SPU Wood A is beautiful in finish and form, as well as in its sonic expression.
The SPU Wood A unique characteristics includes an outstanding housing made of Japanese Beech wood, famous for its strength and hardness. For the exclusive surface treatment, the 6000 years old Japanese Urushi lacquer method was chosen in order to achieve a hard, resistant and beautiful multilayer surface in dark maroon colour.
The wooden housing has a strong influence resulting in a very pleasant, open, dynamic, straightforward and present tone range characteristic for the SPU sound.
You can always use the A to G style adaptor.

Looks like SPU A size will only be offered. Need the adapter now...

My guess is they will have another anniversary series like the previous, but on a more grand scale. I would bet there will be a 100th G size SPU along with a regular mount cart, just for starters.
The SPU Wood A was introduced at last years Munich show.

Rather than start a new thread...interesting review and comparison of 4 SPU’s
https://www.stereophile.com/content/listening-100-page-2
I believe the Classic is now called #1 E or S ?
