Seeking Opinions/Experiences with Accuphase AC1

Vinyl Asylum

Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

This is a cartridge that came out when I was on an audio hiatus. Course I was in college, and couldn't have afforded one of these beauties. Think at that time the best I could afford was a Sumiko Talisman IIIS. Well I have come across an AC1 that has a fresh Expert Stylus rebuild. Since the Expert rebuilds are highly thought of, and this one has documentation, I am strongly considering acquiring it.
Anyone have any opinions on how the AC1 performs, and might compare to a current production 1K price range cartridge? The AC1 would be installed in a Townshend Rock Mk III with a Rega RB251 with Incognito rewire and Riggle Engineering counter weight and VTAF options. Phono stage is a Hagerman Coronet 2 and Piccolo.
Thoughts/Experiences/Opinions greatly appreciated.
