Review on Enhance Your Audio Experience with Audio-Technica VM520EB Dual Moving Magnet Elliptical Bonded Stereo Turntable Cartridge in Striking Purple by Mark Jefferson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great sound and good price

I bought this for my BIC 980 belt drive turntable. The old Shure cartridge had a broken needle and was very old. A replacement stylus costs the same as this Audio Technica cartridge. I used turntable setting gauges to install the cartridge. I have a lot of vinyl that I've only played once to put on a reel to reel cassette deck. Ribbons age and need to be replaced. Great sound with this pickup and Audio Technica stylus.

Pros
  • dope 🔥
Cons
  • boring packaging

I would recommend the stylus from the VM520E over the VM540ML.
