Question probably best answered by European listmembers ...

In the 1980s, Philips turntables, the line that was belt drive but with a quartz DC servo motor 
driving the belt, were sold in all or most European markets with Philips branded cartridges. Were 
those actually made by Philips? If not, what company was the OEM? I think sometimes the turntables 
were sold in the U.S. with Philips cartridges but most seem to have been sold without cartridges.

Thanks in advance for facts/answers!
