Installation was easy if you have nimble hands and fingers, helps to have a removable cartridge mount head like the Dual 604.Just made it to the edge of the head mount and I aligned using a turntable protractor Baerwald type. When aligned properly using the protractor it visually looks off kilter when aligned with the lines of the protractor. As for performance, it seems to be getting better after playing about 30 albums so far during break in. Mid tones are clean and precise , highs are there and lows are tight and not over pronounced. I am tracking at the recommended 1.8 g. I used a digital cartridge scale for accuracy which was off by about 2 tens of a gram manually.This Cartridge/stylus is very very quiet, You have to listen carefully during quiet passages to tell it is a turntable, good improvement over my old 70s ADC cartridge. Overall pretty happy with it.Read full review

Not an offensive sound but after my Denon 103 needle snapped, this guy was a quick fix. Over hyped bass and sluggish mids with a flat high end. A very un-dynamic sound, not unflattering, if you have a Technics 1200 and need a nicer cart try this out, good for rock and hip hop. But if you are a HIFI listener with a tube system I would give it a miss and spend twice the money elsewhere. I'll just get my Denon re-tipped...thanks.

Barring the minor difficulty in setting up this cart- given its screw and nut design, this cart performs very well. Well rounded bottom end and less aggressive enjoyable top end with more pronounced mids - all these even as it’s yet to fully break in. I am thoroughly pleased with the cart, the seller, Kazar-35 and eBay.

This is a very well rounded cartridge and stylus, able to handle various different venues of music with the same mostly natural sound. I found the bass to be very good without booming, the mid's to be nice and flowing with a very good natural soundstage to them and the hi's to be heard but not over bearing. The mid's are where the MP110 shines...very smooth. It's not the cheapest cart out there, but certainly not the most expensive. If you're looking for a very good entry-level introduction to vinyl, you can't go wrong with this one.

Have been eyeing it for quite some time now. Not a replacement but a switch out for a sumiko pearl. Two amazing cartridges. The Nagaoka has a more pronounced high end(not bright) just a beautiful sound well balanced. As far as ease of set up, I have it on a Micro Seiki Dq3 with a grace 545 arm and grace headshell. With the right tools (ie scale and protractor) its a breeze. For the price it out shines many(only my opinion).
