During that time, I have upgraded my turntable, amp, phonostage, headphones, and speakers (several times over). This cartridge has stayed put. I have never felt the urge to upgrade it, and every new piece of gear has simply showed me how much better this cart is than I'd previously thought. I am an absolute money-burning moron when it comes to this HiFi "hobby," but despite the *high* price tag, this is a product I have never regretted buying.I've previously used a handful of good Audio Technica carts, two MI Grado carts, and a mid-level MM Sumiko cart. This is miles better than any of them. The amount of spacial and tonal information conveyed through that little bit of diamond and boron is *wild*, and aside from these qualities, it simply sounds beautiful. I'm at a point in this reckless audio journey where many would recommend a nice MC cart, but I genuinely have no interest in one. This cart is so low-maintanance, so easy to re-tip (requires an allen wrench and 5 minutes), and so delightful to listen to that I simply don't care what else is out there. If you can swing it, get it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sounding Cartridge *by D***A on July 10, 2023* I was looking for a high quality MM cartridge for my Technics turntable. I wanted MM because I’m using a vintage preamp. I found the setup was not difficult using the simple but clear instructions that were provided. I also followed the turntables instructions. I’m very happy with the sound quality. Excellent bass, smooth sounding without harshness. The stylus is replaceable which will save some money as opposed to having to replace a whole cartridge. The company has a long history of operating in japan which is something I valued. The cartridge feels and looks high quality and so does the packaging it came in. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I felt like Dr. Frankenstein when I hear this cartridge at work *by A***R on January 6, 2019* Absolutely superb! Robust spund across the freq. Range. Sub bass and mid bass are deep and detailed. Drums are bold, never shy. They let you know who's boss. For the low and mid range. Definitely amazing. Highs are not harsh, sharp, brittle, yet very clear. They are just warm enough to be ear friendly, vibrant enough to resonate in your room, and detailed enough to hear the instrument for what it really is. I hate it! I wanted a horrible cartridge and I got stuck purchasing this beautiful masterpiece. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nagaoka Cartridge MP Series - MP-500 Record Cartridge - NAGAOKA MP Series MP-200 & MP-200H Replacement Stylus JN-P200 - Hudson Hi-Fi Turntable Cartridge Alignment Kit - The Audiophile Purists Perfected 3-Piece LP Cartridge Setup Set.
