    Interesting MC and quite superior and seems to be well reviewed was sold with the original PL-44F

    Watch this space -
    I would be interested in your findings as the Pioneer was one of the few moving coil cartridge designs that had a replaceable stylus. Unfortunately because of that, the sound performance was compromised and the cartridge received some indifferent reviews.

    Well my findings so far after spinning a couple of albums a very refined sounding cartridge with lovely highs not sure why the reviews differ but i must say I'm impressed sounding very good indeed and a bargain @ £45 i must say - replacement styluses are £100 this one has a sharp tip so plenty of life left in the old girl - Well rated review from me 5* will be running in on the next few hours - Happy listening

    Bet you end up with a Denon DL-103 somewhere along the way Dan. Everybody does!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Very well regarded in their time. That tuner display looks a bit shagged mind you
