Perfect for my needs
E
I replaced the spec cart my turntable came with the OM 5S for home listening. Perfect at a good price.

It does what is says on the box
I unfortunately have some vinyl in less than pristine condition and it is for playing these records that I use a cheaper conical stylus without too much of a drop in sound quality (apart from the scratches of course.)

Easy to install and set up
Purchased a month ago primarily because I needed to replace my stylus but couldn’t find one in stock. I tempered my disappointment with that by viewing the cartridge replacement as an upgrade for my Pro-ject Primary E deck. It was easy to install and easy to set up with the accessories provided when I bought the deck. Delivery was very quick as well.
