Dear friends of beoworld!

I am looking for a pickup to use with a Beogram 4500 turntable. Which would be fine? Do you where I would get any?

Best regards
Elmar

Hi there ,

only the MMC1-5 pickups (for Sound-smith SMMC1-5) are suitable for the Beogram 4500!

You can buy them at

http://www.audio-origin.co.uk/audioshop.html in England

https://www.sound-smith.com/bo-cartridgesin USA

https://www.tonabnehmerservice.de/B-O-MMC-Systeme/ Germany

 

the prices are very high, the cheapest pickup system: MMC5 costs about 150 €, the best MMC1 can cost 600 € up to 1000 €!
