I had read reviews and more reviews. I am glad I splurged and tried this type stylus for my M91ED, it brings this shure cartridge up to near my shure v15vmr, which I think is as good as almost anything out there, without spending ridiculous money. I am hearing some details on certain recordings I hadn't heard before. Solid bottom, balanced midrange and detailed cymbal strikes, it's all there and nothing exaggerated! Makes me smile and spin more records. Love it!
