Fantastic cartridge and stylus. Lovely rich bass, clear treble and the mids are good. This being a replacement for my planar 1 2018 cartridge and stylus being the same ( rega carbon moving magnet ). I could of purchased a stylus alone and simply unclipped the old one and clipped the new replacement on but found a new cartridge and stylus on eBay for two pounds more than a replacement stylus so figured that it would be prudent to keep the cartridge in reserve, however, I am informed that a moving magnet cartridge alone may last 25 years! ( good to have a back up nonetheless for the year 2043 ). The stylus is a cone shaped one ( not elliptical) but still reproduces a really detailed, great sound. If you are happy with the sound the stylus can be picked up for around ten pounds, and simply clicked onto the cartridge as mentioned above. If however you wish to upgrade somewhat and keep the carbons moving magnet cartridge and replace the stylus the LP Gear ATN3600DLXVL stylus is a really good, compatible upgrade. I believe it is an elliptical stylus and will give an improved sound but on a budget the rega carbon stylus is absolutely fantastic. I used mine every day for one year and it still sounded great but I noticed a slight decline in sounds clarity so thought best to replace before potentially damaging my treasured vinyl collection using a worn needle. I would estimate that it had in excess of 300 hours use and could of maybe gone for half that again. Also out of curiosity to replace a stylus I decided to do this being my first turntable. I would thoroughly recommend this cartridge and stylus. Rega products are very high quality.Read full review

I bought this cartridge on the back of excellent web reviews. Installed it in my old Rotel turntable which is a rebadged Rega. My taste is for 1950s/60s jazz mainly but also world music/Beatles/Police et cetera. I think it’s a little brighter than the Audio Technica AT110 that I was replacing, but it’s every bit as involving, or possibly more so – so far, I haven’t detected any disadvantage from its stylus being spherical rather than elliptical and of course setup is less critical. Even at the end of sides, detail levels seem to be maintained. I’m a serious listener, did not buy this for background music. But I’ve got to admit that I have no hearing above 10kHz. Great value!

This is an amazing little gem. I have expensive moving magnets and moving coils but wanted this for my 1974 CEC BD2000 turntable and it sounds fantastic. The bass is especially good going deep but not overblown. Tracks well, and I'm tracking at 2.7g. Maximum is 3g for this cartridge. Slightly better I think than the AT91 that I have had before

An easy to set up moving magnet cartridge that gives a detailed sound- a good beginners cartridge
