{"product_id":"dynavector-dv-10x5a-cartridge-exchange","title":"Dynavector DV-10X5A Cartridge Exchange","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dynavector DV-10X5A Cartridge Exchange lets you trade in your worn or damaged DV-10X5A and take $251 off a brand-new one. The cartridge is the only part of your system that genuinely wears out: a diamond riding a groove until it starts to tell on itself. A dull stylus, a worn suspension, a cantilever that lost a fight with tiny hands or a rambunctious cat. When yours is spent, you shouldn't have to pay full price to hear your records again. Send back the old DV-10X5A and a factory-fresh one comes the other way, same model, $251 less. Not a retip, not a rebuild.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuy this trade-in.
