Ortofon Stylus Pro S

Works as described.

Bought locally, but reviewing here. Excellent replacement stylus for my OM-10 Super cartridge. Frequency response is excellent. Crystalline highs, solid lows, and tracks like a champion. I switched from Stanton carts to the Ortofon about a decade ago, and couldnt be happier with these Danish-made cartridges. Theyre very lightweight, and the design is such that its simple to find the lead-in on a specific track. The sound is impressive, and the tone arm is easy to balance. For the money, these cannot be beat. I am not a DJ, I just have a collection of vinyl and enjoy listening this way. Tangible music. Recommended.

Ordered the Pro S but got the DJ S instead. I actually have 2 old DJ S rigs sitting in a closet so I just brought one out of retirement to keep with the blue color scheme. I dont mind that I didnt get what I ordered because I was still able to use what I got, but it does make me worry about ordering again in the future.

Ive been using these needles since they first came out! They are great!!!

Thank you for your timely delivery! I received my stylus without any problems.

For 30 bucks, cant complain. It doesnt sound as good as an elliptical but for a straight tone arm you can only use spherical with the Ortofons, so.... here we are! Its a good deal really and its ortofon quality, great sound.

Had an original Ortofon cartridge that needed replacing on a vintage turntable. Always been a fan of Ortofon, and the first disc on this new stylus reinforced that further. The renewed clarity and ease of installation always keep me coming back for more. Would definitely recommend this to friends and purchase again!

They work & sound great!

Great stylus. Dont listen to the reviewer that claims he/she has been using them for years and they arent good for scratching. I am a DJ and use these on my turntables and they are amazing for scratching! Both standard vinyl and Serato DVS control vinyl. As long as you setup your turntable properly, they wont skip or wear records very fast. You should be using a stylus protractor (Baerwald) to properly align the cart on the headshell, then you should be using a stylus weight to make sure the tracking force is dialed in correctly. As long as you do that, these will perform like champ when scratching. Even the almighty Shure M447 requires proper setup for it to be the beast its been known to be. Theres a guy on the DJ reddit as I write this asking why his Shure is skipping. He didnt set it up right. These Ortofon OM Pro S stylus are great and Id put them up against anything else!
