"The AT7V is installed and working very well. It's an excellent cart, much cleaner and more refined than my old Ortofon OM10. Thank you very much!"

Hi Fidelity!

When I bought this cart I had some Polk Audio RTi A1s it didn't do much for me and thought about selling it, fast forward to present I now have a pair of Dali Sensor 1 and this cart is amazing so for those who don't like the cart maybe it's your speakers I'm glad I hung on to it because I see LP Gear is out of stock.

Thanks for providing the parts I needed to get my old turntable working again. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks for taking the time to properly packaging the parts so they didn’t get damaged during shipping.

Best cartridge I've ever heard

Best cartridge I've ever heard. Gets rid of a lot of background noise (pops etc) I used to hear on some more problematic records. Sounds both incredibly smooth and detailed, which isn't easy to do. Incredible value for the money.

Fabulous

Excellent! This cartridge sounds superb and it's affordable. I'm using it with a Technics SL-1200 MK2 TT, Graham Slee Era Gold V phono, Hegel integrated, Kef LS50 speakers and REL T5i subs and it's music to my ears. Rich full natural and sweet right across the frequency spectrum. Beautifully balanced with no hardness or brightness. No IGD at all and that was straight out of the box without any break in. It has outperformed my Denon DL-110 and Ortofon Super OM40 cartridges. There really is no more that I can add or say that hasn't been said before. It is excellent value and I'm sure glad that I bought it. Thank you very much LP Tunes/Gear for importing such a fine product. A+

Beogram TX-2

Great direct replacement for my TX-2.

Arrived on time, worked great.

LP Gear is a wonderful niche business!

I recently went on a bit of a stylus bender since bending my very costly Jico SAS B (for my Shure v15iv). I purchased a replacement, which after tarrifs came to nearly $400! I styli'd up for all my ortofons and shares so that A) I had good, new styli for my records' health, but also for better sound. I got LP Gear's house branded replacement styli for my vintage Ortofon VMS carts and my 2 Shures.
One thing I asked for, the LpGear branded stylus appeared to be identical to the Jico "budget" solution that LPGear offered for $20 more. I asked if some of their house branded offerings were OEM from Jico. I never heard. Based on this, and the fact that the images for the LPGear and the Jico on the web page were identical (one was rotated 180 deg), I concluded that the LPGear is likely a Jico. I didn't get a reply. :( But overall I'm thrilled with the purchases and the service. I highly recommend.

Wonderful Companion to Shure SC35C

Purchased based on the other review here and several posts on various forums stating this stylus was great for the Shure SC35C, as it tracks at half the weight of the standard stylus while still minimizing noise on old, well loved records. I'm happy to report they were 100 percent accurate. Records that were so noisy and full of pops and clicks are now much more enjoyable with several becoming almost dead silent. This combo is now a permanent additon to a dedicated turntable for well loved records that I don't use on my tables with higher end cartridges. I have enjoyed it so much I also have a second headshell with this combo to swap between my other turntables. Make sure you give it some time to break in as is common with all styli, it will continue to get better with use. If your still getting lots of noise with this combo your records are most likely still dirty and I suggest you invest in an ultrasonic cleaner. If that doesn't help the record most likely is trashed. This is a great stylus at a great price! Most replacement stylus for discontinued carts seen to be to getting quite expensive and I suggest buying several now as they will only get more expensive as time goes on like everything else has been.
