Great upgrade!
Bought for my Father’s Technics SL1200. A great and simple upgrade from the original cartridge/needle he had. The level of detail is great, and the background drops off to near zero. Super pleased that Dad can play his Jazz again.

Excellent sound to my ear
I’ve never claimed to notice the fine sound details so often seen in these reviews. But I enjoy music, especially lps and this product has improved my enjoyment Well worth the money

Nice kit with all the basics you need to install
Great cartridge for the price and the added installation kit is a great little bonus. You can print the alignment strip for sitting the cartridge for free online, so really this kit gives you all the basics you need to install (down to the hex wrench).

Excellent Product: Ortofon - 2M Red MM Phono Cartridge
I wouldn't expect anything less from a product that was manufactured by Ortofon. I've heard of the company for many years and I wanted to see if they held true to their name.At first the assembly was intended for my AT-LP120xUSB, but I just purchased an AT-LP1240USB XP turnrable. I thought it would be best to place the cartridge/ stylus on that table. I must warn you. You must treat this cartridge/stylus with kid gloves. You can damage or break the needle (Stylus) accidentally. Naturally, any small item posted on amazon looks huge. But when this product arrived in the mail and I opened it, WOW!, so tiny!The pictures posted indicate the compatibility to the AT-LP120USB, and the AT-LP1240USB XP Edition tables.I would not say this cartridge/ stylus is for beginners or any cartridge for that matter. You have to have some knowledge in Tone Arm balancing, Anti-Skate adjustment, and cartridge alignment. I find that Vinyl Engine.com is a huge source for finding answers to your turntable questions. The site is absolutely free, and you do need to register. They supply protractors for various tone arms, which makes cartridge alignment much easier.I would recommend this cartridge/ stylus without a doubt.

Great product!
Fantastic choice for my vintage Panasonic RD-2900. Makes my turntable sing like the ‘70s. Came packaged well with additional hardware and solid instructions.

Misleading
Claims it fits all head shells not true because of its large size

Wow. I can now hear what I've been missing.
My Dad was a vinyl guy. I came of age with cassettes and later CDs. My daughter got me into vinyl. We picked up an nice entry level turntable with the standard AT cartridge. Not bad, but eventually it started dropping the left channel. I researched a bit and pulled the trigger on this Ortofon 2M Red. WOW! So much better. Top to bottom everything is significantly clearer.
