Audio-Technica - AT6003R Cartridge Storage Case

A three-capsule case that stores headshells with their cartridges still mounted, protected from dust and UV.

Anyone running more than one cartridge ends up with headshells sitting loose in a drawer, which is how cantilevers get bent. The AT6003R gives each one a home: the headshell seats upright on a lock-pin post in the ABS base, and a clear polycarbonate capsule drops over it.

The capsules do two jobs. The obvious one is keeping dust off the stylus. The less obvious one is UV protection — the suspension and the adhesive holding the stylus in place both degrade with light exposure over the years. Each capsule has a side slit that clears the headshell's finger lift so it seats fully without forcing, and the base sits on rubber feet.

Designed for double lock-pin type headshells. Cartridges and headshells are not included.
