P8ES Needle review

Just received the replacement needle 2 days ago. Sounds great. Original pressure by AKG mentioned between 0.75 to 1.25 gr. The cartridge is installed on a Denon DP-31L turntable with original straight tonearm. When playing form 0.75 to 1.25 gr on brand new Bill Evans trio disk, there was some distortion occurring on loud passages. To get rid of it, I had to increase pressure to 1.75 gr with same amount on anti-skating. Then the piano came crystal clear and bass man huge bass coming out of the cartridge. Extremely pleasant listening with no sign of distress. My only worry is that I hope that going from the maximum stated weight of 1.25 gr to 1.75 gr will not damage the cantilever suspension. Future will tell but this legendary cartridge even after 40 years is still a revelation in sound and space coming out of the vinyl disks.

Exactly what I needed

The stylus I received was absolutely perfect. I was gifted one of those sound systems capable of playing CDs, vinyls, cassettes, etc., which was a dream until the record player stopped working. After years of my vinyls collecting dust, I decided to get crafty and see what I could do to fix my machine. Unfortunately for me, my system is no longer being manufactured. After some toggling with machine parts and a purchase of a new stylus, my record player finally works! The stylus I purchased is infinitely better than the original stylus in terms of quality. I am happy to have been able to save the money I would have spent on another system and to keep a thoughtful gift.

easy to order, fast shipping

LP Tunes communicated especially well answering technical,product and shipping questions throughout my purchasing experience. The turntable I purchased arrived in timely fashion and as advertised. I will return to them as a customer should I need additional audio equipment. I appreciate the fact they provide choice and quality turntables in the digital age.
