    Audio Technica P-Mount styli NOT from LPGear/LPTunes?

    Recently, I had been looking into getting a higher end replacement stylus for my AT92E P-mount cart, settling on a microline from LPGear. They proceeded to ship me a bent stylus, blame the damages on me, and refuse to authorize a return. Long story short, I don’t really feel like giving them...

    Dual CS-415 overhaul

    Okay, well ... perhaps NOT the complete overhaul, but most definitely an upgrade and/or damage repair. Long story short, I was given this particular table back in 2020, and it was mostly in working (although neglected) condition. It needed a replacement stylus, RCA leads, new power brick, new...

    AT VM95ML stylus under a microscope looks . . . weird?

    Happy New Year, everybody! Let me start off by saying that I'm very very new to Turntables. I may whip up a post about it later, but I just built my very first turntable from vintage parts and a custom plinth. For the final piece, I picked up a brand new AudioTechnica VM95ML cartridge...

    AT92E w/ nude elliptical vs. AT122LP w/ bonded line contact

    Hi all, I currently have an AT92E with a nude elliptical diamond on my Technics SL-QD33. The overall SQ is good, but it does exhibit some unwanted sibilance and IGD. I am eyeing an NOS AT122LP on Reverb for $135 which has a bonded line contact/Shibata stylus. My question to you all is, will the...

The main ones are an NOS Shure M111-HE, a Pickering XSP-4004 with OG Stereohedron stylus (very little talked-about cart), an Audio-Technica AT231LP with OG line contact...

    I have a Fisher MT-6224 turntable that I love--except for one thing. I wanted to mount an Empire 2000E cartridge, with a brand new expensive LC stylus on it, and the 'cue' lever does not lift the tone arm high enough to clear the 'edge' of the LP, to start playing the album. The AT cartridge...
