I really wanted a great turntable and bought an Audio-Technica LP120XUSN. I didn't have the money to buy a good receiver or speakers and all I had was a Logitec 625 2.1 with THX computer speakers, which by the way are just great. Knowing I needed to preamp the turntable and need a preamp EQ, I found an ultra-compact 9-band Behringer MiniFBQ FBQ800 graphic EQ and put everything together. I had no idea how he was going to sound, so I just adjusted the arm balance. and put on my favorite 5FDP LP. Yes, it sounded great! But I didn't quite feel the AT stylus making the sound, it was great but it didn't just make the feel. After three days, I realized I needed to get back to that 80's vibe, so I decided to go for the best, and the only way to achieve that was by using the Ortofon pen. For a long time I thought about which model to choose, bought the Ortofon OM Pro S, and after a few adjustments everything was ready! I love this needle. My first Ortofon was one of the first Concords in 1980. I found that my 100-watt speaker literally 18 inches away from me had no hiss, pops, or feedback. right pen. Head over to Ortofon and my best OM Pro S. My system is literally a PC based beast (no expert would dream of stepping back and building a great sounding stereo system like this). It proved to me what I felt and loved from the first install (man I miss that NAD amp), Ortofon got me home again.

Pros
  • Fitted with a round diamond stylus to minimize wear and tear
