Posted Sun Jan 8, 2006, 1:18 PM ET — By Larry Greenhill

The German Clearaudio company, ever-reverent of James Bond's lineage of luxury philosophy, introduced the $17,000 Goldfinger cartridge.

Broke the stylus clean off mine last night :-( Best sounding cartridge out there, compared it to the Dynavector DR-XV1s & Insider Reference Wood, huge dynamic range & clarity.
