Customer Reviews
I bought this cartridge from LP Tunes because i wanted an affordable cart/stylus to play my wife's grandfather's 78's, and i found one at LP Tunes! It sounds absolutely wonderful, and the stylus is so rigid that it perfectly replaces the old styli from back in the day, as it is really built like a nail ;-) Anyone wanting quality of build and sound, should buy this cartridge. I highly recommend both LP Tunes, and this cartridge. Full 5 stars! Shipping, everything, was a 5 star experience!
I came into over 100 78 rpm records but had no way to play them. I was able to convert my Technics SL-1900 to run at 78 but still needed a proper cartridge and stylus.
Found this offering at LP Tunes and it was just perfect. A highly regarded Audio Technica cartridge with the 3 mil stylus already included. And at a very attractive price.
I received my order very quickly and mounted the cartridge with excitement to hear those old records (some as early as 1905)
The cartridge tracks perfectly even through some rough spots and small cracks. It sounds great on the later (48-58) recordings and you can even hear the oldest ones clearly.
A perfect solution for listening to the old recordings. Thanks LP Tunes.
