Awesome Cartridge!

Because of the price, I looked at the MP-200 as out of reach. So I sold a bunch of stereo gear that I hadn’t used in years and bought the Nagaoka MP-200. Now I’m kicking myself for having waited so long to purchase one. I’m hearing details and harmonies in my LPs that I have never heard before. I’ve had other cartridges with fancy line contact stylus and yet the MP-200 still gets more details from my records. Note it took several attempts to get the MP-200 properly aligned on my turntable (Music Hall MMF 1.5). It was well worth the extra effort to get it aligned right. Once the cartridge was locked into proper alignment, the music just bloomed. But the alignment must be spot-on to get great results. If you’ve never installed and aligned an aftermarket phono cartridge before, recommend having it done for a pro-shop. Happy listening!

FISHER MT-729 Turntable Replacement Belt

Belt

Hi guys, I’m sure this belt is just great. I actually need help getting the turntable to turn still. Is there a way that I can be on a phone call or even FaceTime to explain and show what’s going on with this Older turntable with any of your staff?

Good price for the stylus. Arrived quickly and easily. Will be ordering from them again!!

Stylus for Realistic System 1210 turntable

Perfect fit, timely delivery, would order from them again

Great cartridge!

The solid low end was a surprise! I generally feel 2 gram tracking force is a bit high but am going with it as specified. I do a lot of LP to digital conversions and this cartridge tracks well on older worn LPs with little inner grove distortion. I did do a realignment as the cartridge/headshell as received was a bit off. The sound is unremarkable which is to say neutral which is a pleasant change from cartridges I’ve used in the past! Overall a great performer especially at this price point. Definitely recommended!

Exactly as described

Part was identical to the worn out original. Had the new one installed in 10 seconds.

Good sounding

A warm, balanced good sounding stylus for the money. Give it a little break in time for best sound.

Excellent Stylus

After I listened to a few records that had playback issues I had to adjust the anti-skate,rebalance the tonearm and adjust the tracking force. I've played back several records with no issues. The sound from this stylus is great you can tell the difference when you hear the upper,lower and mid frequencies.

Sounds fantastic

I upgraded a basic needle to this on my old automatic Technics SL-QD22. Sounds very very good. This is my first time upgrading a needle so I only have the basic needles I have used before as a comparison. Very happy with my purchase.
