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.

Exactly what I needed

Fantastic.

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.)

New ortofon Cartridge
22 June 2021

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.
