About this CompanyWhere music starts. ™
Since 1995, LP GEAR® has been serving the record-playing community via the Internet. Ever since that time we have been enhancing the musical enjoyment of customers in North America and in many parts of Asia, Australia, and the European Community who otherwise would have been unable to enjoy music through their turntables. After all, how can one play a record via a belt-drive turntable without a working belt. We're being facetious but we do have a point don't we.
LP Gear continues its specialization on turntable belts—a unique service in that we have the most extensive variety of correct belts for turntables in the known planet. Since then, we've expanded our selection of cartridges, styli and needles. Our success in this area has transformed us into one of the planet's leading providers of replacement styli for magnetic cartridges. Consistent with our pursuit of perfect quality and superiority, we have become an OEM of world class cartridges and replacement styli. To serve the audio community even further, we are expanding our music reproduction portfolio to include select brands of audio electronics, tubes and accessories.
We enjoy music and are committed to perfecting your music listening experience. We take every component to its highest level of significance and strive for perfection. Within a music system, each part in the chain plays a role of highest significance.
LP Gear's history is intertwined with the resurgence of vinyl record playing and for this and other compelling reasons, we surmise: This is where music starts. ™

Arrived in good time and well packaged. Replacing my very old stylus with this updated version. This improved needle makes some of my thirty and forty year old albums sound like they are new again.

Forget you paid $50 for this cartridge and just listen…Right out of the box it sounded good. The only caveat here is that I’m 66. Do I hear everything that you younger guys hear? I doubt it. However, I’m not deaf by any stretch of the imagination. This is a great cartridge for the money. I am impressed to say the least.

Seems to be a great stylus for The Vessel cartridge. I was curious about the effectiveness of a "ruby cantilever". It is not overly bright at all..as some people claim. As matter of fact it is quite flat on my system. It's low output (2.5mv) may be a problem on some systems. I'm OK with it, since my line-stage pre-amp has 18db of gain.
Why LP Gear?
1) variety of products.
2) fast shipping

The "default" stylus on "The Vessel" was OK but not GREAT.
I wanted to try a higher-end stylus

I've been an LP customer for about two years now. I stumbled on to this site while hunting for replacement styli for a legacy Shure cart. I also own a Grado and an AT cart. LP Gear is my "go to" spot for replacement styli for these.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
