## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great replacement.
*by D***D on 1 October 2025*

I have a vintage Technics SL B210 turntable. Needed to upgrade the cartridge. Found this the most suitable. Different sound then the original T24 technics cartridge. Sounding good. This is only suitable for turntables with P mounted cartridges.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delivery was fast and in very good condition.
*by B***H on 29 November 2024*

The product is stylus for my turn table. Audio quality is very good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Tru-fi sound!
*by S***E on 8 March 2020*

Great product. Resurrected my old Technics direct drive turntable which has a P-Type cartridge. Beautiful, natural sound. However, I am not sure it has a 'diamond' stylus (someone correct me, please?) which means it will probably have a shorter life than it would have with a diamond stylus. But great sound and happy with the product.
