Awesome, thanks for the feedback! I have considered grabbing one for YEARS and keep wavering on it. I think they are definitely an exceptional value for what they are – like you said, just the price of the stylus pretty much covers the entire turntable. I'm currently running with a Audio-Technica VM540ML, but the Ortofon Blue was a strong runner up. I'd love to compare them side-by-side one day.

Enjoy the music! 🎶
