Great Sound. Great Tracking December 8, 2008
Erik Wrenholt
I'll admit I haven't listened to very many other cartridges, but these were a great replacement for the Stanton 500Bs that came with my T.60 turntables. These have more dynamic range and deliver more bass, and clear highs. The stanton 500Bs had a little bit of distortion in the treble range when playing passages with lots of bass. The Shure's handle the same passages better, with less audible distortion. I believe part of the distortion I was hearing was due to the straight tone-arms reverberation on the T.60s. I've since upgraded to Technic 1200s with the S shaped tone-arms which seems to help as well.
The main advantage I've noticed with this stylus over the Stanton's is the increased clearance from the bottom of the cartridge to the bottom of the stylus. I have a few warped records that I couldn't get to play with the Stanton due to the record actually bumping into the bottom of the cartridge. The Shure's handle these records great with an extra 2mm or so more clearance.

If you don't know Shure's reputation, you probably are not from this planet... This is the best scratch cartridge ever made !! Perfect sound quality, insane for scratches, loud bass response, long last standing and so on. Do not waste your time and money... GET IT RIGHT NOW !!

These are the purfect needles for the world's most perfect turntable, the Technique 1200's but they are not limited to use only on 1200's. These needles can be installed in less than a minute and the needle can handle whatever you throw at it, so you can cut your records down to the bone! The bass sound really comes through well on these babies and they track your records really well which comes in handy for records which seem worn down.
