OVERVIEW
Stanton's new, entry level cartridge which boasts an extremely high output for something in this price range: 10mV, which is about the same as a high end Ortofon. Pretty impressive. It also comes with Stanton's mark of durability (they really do make the most rugged cartridges on the market), which makes this an easy choice for beginners. It comes with a spherical stylus, so scratching is not a problem although the high tracking force will wear your records a bit. You can't beat this for the money though.
