I needed a stylist to put together an old JVC QLL2 turntable with the original cartridge. When I came across this cartridge, I decided it was time to replace the old one. When the cartridge arrived, it appeared to be in good condition, and it looked almost identical to the original. Unfortunately, when compared to the old one, I was extremely disappointed with the sound it produced. Everything was muffled and lacked the low end I was expecting. I switched back to the old cartridge, but replaced the old stylus with one from an Audio Technica cart, and the sound produced by the old cartridge and new stylus is incredible. If you have a similar turntable, you might be able to save money by just replacing the needle.
According to one review, this cartridge restored the sound of the SL Q200. The order was placed with the intention of providing a simple plug-and-play solution. Nope. The cartridge will not fit into the T4P on the arm properly. It will plug in, and when we insert the cartridge, we will hear a connection "pop," indicating that a connection has been established. The screw that secures the cartridge to the arm is misaligned, so I'm guessing this is the wrong cartridge size. It's a huge pain. br>To be fair, the cartridge could be fine and I could be using the wrong arm, but with the alphabet soup of these things, it's difficult to know what's needed. All I know is that this cartridge was ineffective.
My college-era turntable was returned to me. I'm blown away by the fact that (a) it still works, (b) the dustcover is still intact, and (c) cartridges are still available. I'm not an audiophile enough to judge the quality by those standards, but it still sounds great and holds up well to CDs, streaming, and MP3s, which account for the majority of my listening. It's great to see an old pal making music again.
Last weekend, I purchased a Technics SL QD33 table, which was humming and had a low right channel on output. I figured that replacing the cartridge would at the very least resolve the low channel problem. Perhaps the hum as well. This works perfectly with the p mount tone arm. It also sounds good. It resolved my problems, and the sound quality is adequate (though I am not an audiophile). It is, however, a good way to get started playing.
This DC/Direct Drive turntable was given to me. When I examined it, the needle had simply fallen out. I placed an order for this Audio- It was delivered the next day, according to Technica. In ten minutes, I was able to remove the old one and replace it with the new one. Vinyl has a great sound. Now - I'm looking for documents.
For my Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Audio-Technica Audio AT3482P cartridge from Technica. Has a range of 1 listed on it. 0 to 1. With a recommended tracking force of 1, the weight is 5 grams. 25 grams. At a tracking force of one, I used it on a couple of old LP records. Tracking is critical when dealing with 35-year-old records that have been abused in the past.
Arrived quickly, was incredibly simple to set up, and sounded fantastic. This was purchased to replace the cartridge in a Pioneer PLAYSTATION PLAYER. I paid $3 for a 570 (black plastic from the 1980s) that I found at a yard sale. For the price of one of those suitcase turntables, I got this cartridge and a Hudson rubber platter mat, and I now have a very nice sounding, fully automatic turntable. For the price, I couldn't be more pleased with the sound; highly recommended.
I bought it to go with an old Technics SL-100. I'm offering the Q300 for sale. The Shure cartridge that came with the microphone had seen better days. The sound is clear, and the conical needle prevents you from hearing every tick on a record, which is ideal if you're just getting into records or returning to them. For the past 40 years, I have been a huge supporter of AT products.
