Gee, I remember having boxes of these tonearms and the cartridges in storage back in the 80's. My father was the Victorian distributor and it was a time when Mission almost couldn't do anything wrong. The cartridge was made by Dynavector for Mission and I think the arm was from Jelco. Is that a gold Garrott decal I see on the side? I had the silver high output version of this one (the HC) and had the Garrotts do their magic with mine too. 

On the Sondek, it'll be a nice combo.

Enjoy.

Ended up buying a new Grado Gold2 cart. It was only a 20 min session but i liked what i heard?

Still plenty of adjusting to do to the tone arm to get it set right, A new or re-capped Valhalla will be required soonish & some new RCAs 

After some alignments & adjustments the LP12 is really starting to sing, Ive been impressed with the Grado Gold2 cart so far and more improvement to come as it burns in?
