Hi all!
I have just purchase a new (used) turntable and, on it, there ware mounted a Van den Hul Cartridge. The problem is that I cannot find out which one it is.
It looks exactly like the new MC-one:- black body but instead of ONE on the front it say REF! Can any one help me finding out which Cartridge this is! And If I am that lucky that some one have the specifications on it......J))))
Tank you at front!
Regards

Hello,
have you got any pictures from your cartridge?
I think this is not Van den Hul pickup. Maybe this is an old Benz Micro (Empire) cartridge.
Mr. Van den hul used first the Empire body for his cartridge (same as DDTII, MC-ONE, Frog etc.)
This is the specification, if it has not vdH needle and cantilever.
Output level: ca. 0,35 mV/ 3,54 cm/s
Frequenzbereich 20- 20'000 Hz +/- 1 dB
Tracking force 1,8 - 2,2 Gramm
Load impedance: 0,2 bis 47 kOhm
Best regards

Hi,
It seems your cartridge truly made by Van den Hul, but lower label "REF" same as Benz Micro (Empire).
I think you use the pickup as Van den hul MC-ONE.
The spec.:
Tracking Force: 1.35 - 1.50 Gram
Vertical Tracking Angle: 22 Degrees
Load Impedance: 0.2 - 47 kOhm
Recommended Load Impedance: 200 Ohm
Recommended Eff. Tone arm Mass: 8 - 12 Gram
