I received this as a replacement for a defective Janpanese model (AT33PTG/II) that was defective. Audio Technica was under no obligation to replace it since I did not purchase in the US but AT Japan told AT US to take care of me...and they did.
This is a very wide range, detailed cart with specs that match or exceed many at twice the price. (MSRP is 1200 but can be had for $500 +). It is a solid performed with wide sound stage, tight bass, great mids and very detailed. It tracks incredibly and being an MC cart, quiet, does not transmit alot of vinyl noise.
Recently, LPGear had the OC9/II for $294 (prior model with pretty much same specs) which for anyone taking a foray for the first time into MC is amazing. of course, if you do go MC you need a phono stage to support it but thats another story...
Love my cart...brings the music to life.
