It is all I wanted. I replace the cartridges regularly on a five year of so basis. As time has gone on, my usage of the Sony TT has diminished considerably; consequently replacement of the cartridge (stylus) extends further into the future. Hand made this is not. Does it even stack up to Audio Technica???...not quite...but....if all you do is listen to the occasional record before they all succumb to vinyl rot, you would be hard pressed to put this unit down; unless of course you are made of money and like handmade everything!! Buy it and enjoy. It worked right out of the box. No extended warranty is needed; and when you are ready to get rid of it you may not find anymore such things available. Enjoy. AFG

I bought this cartridge because I needed to record some of my old vinyl, childhood Christmas Albums to the computer. I originally had the Audio Technica carts for my Technics Turntable. After a few of these I thought I'd try the Shure product. I also like the fact that the Shure rides higher above the record (and record lip too) and doesn't rub on the surface like the Audio Technica carts can. All in all a very solid and good sounding cartridge!! The price was just right too!

I am using this with an old turntable. the stereo is connected to the computer so I can transfer records (LP's) to my hard drive and later to CD's. the cartridge has a good midrange and bass. High frequencies are a bit overemphasized. Given the price, the sound is better than we have a right to expect.
