Purchased a month ago primarily because I needed to replace my stylus but couldn’t find one in stock. I tempered my disappointment with that by viewing the cartridge replacement as an upgrade for my Pro-ject Primary E deck. It was easy to install and easy to set up with the accessories provided when I bought the deck. Delivery was very quick as well.

Haven't bought a new stylus head for 30 years. The deck was in the loft records in a tea chest. Now it's back to life for my son to discover all over again. Last ortofon cost nearly a weeks wages, the sounds just as good.
I unfortunately have some vinyl in less than pristine condition and it is for playing these records that I use a cheaper conical stylus without too much of a drop in sound quality (apart from the scratches of course.)
Great service and lots of products to chose from. Highly recommend!
A quality cartridge at an affordable price I have one fitted to my Duel Turntable and I'm highly delighted. So when I purchased a Fluance Turntable I immediately replaced the Audia Technic cartridge that came with the Turntable with the Ortofon. And the reproduction quality is outstanding.
EI replaced the spec cart my turntable came with the OM 5S for home listening. Perfect at a good price.
This is an excellent product for sound quality. It turned up with in good time. Overall a great company to deal with
one of very few still available and affordable
