To explain - fitted to a C123 changer I have is what looks like a magnetic cartridge which is oonly marked '602 (could be 802) - Japan' with no brand name on either the cartridge or the stylus. Checking with a DMM on it's 20Meg. range at the RCA Sockets to which the P.U. wires are connected, however, shows that the cartridge is acting like a capacitor in as much as it will rapidly 'charge' from a low resistance to many Megohms, whereas I would have expected a Magnetic Cart. to have a fairly low & constant resistance reading. Anyone know anything about this cartridge? Maybe it's a ceramic cart.,which looks like a typical MM one?
