Default EEI Austrailai - Elite EEI 500 moviong magnet pickup

There was a company called EEI Australia that made the Elite EEI 500
moving magnetic pickup cartridge (and a moving-coil model)

Does any one know what happened to them?

It has been suggested to me that umless I am willing to spend £500+ on a
pickup cartridge, I would do better to stick to the moving magnet ones
rather than a moving coil one. Would anyone dispute this?


**It TOTALLY depends on your tone arm. As a general rule, MM carts are far
more 'forgiving' of tone arm bearings and resonance issues than MCs. It is
also a general rule that, Dollar for Dollar, an MM cart can provide a higher
level of performance in the budget end of the market.
