Cartridge arrived in clamshell Box included were screws and a screwdriver and a stylus brush. I set up the cartridge using the mirrored protector I bought years ago. Very clean accurate sound, using AT LP 120, Emotiva pre, and powered 8 studio monitors. just sounds awesome.

I love this cartridge. I have used Shure and Ortofon almost exclusively in the past.They have always been satisfactory: I have used the Shure 91 95, 97xe, and type V. However, I must say the Pearl has replaced these cartridges in my affection. I love the smoothness and separation of this cartridge. Nothing is out of place and everything is clear and musical. I listen to mostly classical and 60's pop and the Pearl sounds great with this music. I can't say the bass is boomy, as I don't push the bass on my music. But, each piece I play sounds like music should sound. Thanks Sumiko for such a reasonably priced musical sounding cartridge. I highly recommend this entry cartridge.

Sumiko Pearl in Elliptical Stylus. I have been using Linn K9 cart for my Linn LP12 for a couple of while then I change the needle to Audio Technica which not as good as K9, lost the warmnest and too a bit too harsh for most of the record. Then after browsing I found this recommended cartridge from Sumiko, it is cheap cart compare to other option to replace K9 (with Akito arm). After easy install, I play some records and found the warmnest of K9, actually better than K9. Those harsnest in Audio Tech dissapear and also some harsnest in K9 when I listen to Adele19 also dissapear. Highly recommended... Without any doubt... You should consider this Sumiko Pearl before upgrade cartridge to expensive one.

Like my title says, this Sumiko Pearl MM cartridge is fantastic sounding. I put it on my Technics SL 1500 MK1 and after just 15 mins of set up I was playing records with it. I have installed about 4 of these cartridges for customers who have brought their vintage turntables to me for servicing. And I had to get one myself because of they way It sounds, and for the money this cartridge is a great value. I highly recommend it !!!!

Great cartridge, mellow but detailed. For the price it’s a definite cartridge to consider. When ease of set up is mentioned I guess it depends on your equipment. I use with grace 545 and grace h2 headshell and isn’t difficult to set up. I use 2g on most of my cartridges and works well. Jazz, kraut rock, rock, classical, punk. Just an all around hood cartridge.
