I would agree wholeheartedly with the Product description. The cartridge is also very easy to mount as it has threaded bolt holes on the cartridge body. So no trying to thread small nuts on to screws whilst holding the cartridge in place! The sound produced is very dynamic and detailed. I chose to lower the tonearm height to just below level, as this setting produced a sweeter string tone. I am thrilled with my purchase!
