Ortofon Replacement Stylus OM 5e

Had been using a OM 30 stylist, but it was showing west. After plenty of research and reading many reviews on Amazon, I decided this time to purchase the OM 5E. Exactly what I needed for my continued listening to vintage vinyl.

I just got this stylus and have only played one record with it, but I think its going to work for what I need it to do, and that is mellow-out a pair of older bookshelf speakers (EPI Series 3 Model 70) that tend to favor the high-end. I bought the 5e on the recommendation that it enhances the bass and lower ends a little more than the OM10 that came stock on my Pro-Ject Essential III turntable. Theres no knock against the OM10 as it performs beautifully still on my OTHER Essential III (yes, I have two). Was really looking for an affordable stylus to switch to without having to go through the cartridge replacement routine (I chickened out). I think with a little wear-in time Im going to hear beautiful results.

Its sound quality is excellent.

Thank you

Great replacement no issues removing and replacing.

Que diferencia, fácil de instalar...

works very well

Sounds good. Price is a little high. I prefer audio technica

This stylus is a little stronger than some of your pricier needles and sounds pretty good. All stylus are too expensive and I wanted a good sounding needle on records that havent been cared for.

The stylus on my NAD turntable was allegedly new - but I suspected something was wrong with it. I replaced it with my new one and the sound difference was immediately apparent.
