Reloop OM-BLACK Turntable Stylus Cartridge with Headshell Mounting

First, getting straight to the point... casual listeners and weekend DJs will not be disappointed by this stylus. I bought it mostly to use for listening to old 45s, and I thought I'd also try it with some classical records, such as my Deutsche Grammophon pressing of Holst's "The Planets". I'm listening to "The Planets" as I write this, and to my untrained ears, the playback is clean, with no distortion, and is enjoyable to listen to. Also, while this is purely subjective, I like the appearance of these stylus cartridges. They just look nice on ny turntable. As you can see in the above photos, the stylus looks pretty good on my cheap headshell, and the narrow body makes it easy to cue the stylus on the track I want to listen to. So far, the only negative I've found is the interesting pinout. While my Audio Technica cartridges are all wired with the L and R wires on top of each other, this cartridge is wired in an X pattern. I had to go to the Ortofon web site (Ortofon makes the cartridge) for a pinout. If you are moving to this cartridge from an Audio Technica, be aware of the difference. I attached a picture of this cartridge's pinout to the review (with added color and markings); the full instructions are on the Ortofon web site. Another nice touch is the included weight in the package. There's a small metal piece that appears to be a weight, which is likely meant for tonearms with a heavier counterweight or to replace heavier cartridges. Without the weight, this cartridge weighs something like 14g, lighter than my table's stock cartridge. The weight adds another 2G, which might make heavier counterweights easier to adjust. So far, I've found this to be a well made and well packaged stylus and cartridge. I'm enjoying listening to music with this stylus, and I hope to spend a lot more time with this setup.

This Reeloop is not bad at all as I used it to mix doubles of Full Force's "Unselfish Lover" like we did at the beginning of hip-hop. It works well with that turntable so I could you imagine how nice it was on my Technics 1200s? Not bad at all! I was surprised that it did not skip on my heavy-hand handling of the platter on the 1800. Smooth! I used the weight that it came with when I installed it on the tonearm and I did not have to use a dime like back in the days. LOL

Buena calidad del producto

All good for DVS systems and Skratching !!

Excelente producto, totalmente compatible con mi tornamos reloj, muy buen sonido totalmente todo lo esperado.

Good for the price

Producto original

Über den klang läßt sich bei 35 € nichts meckern. Völlig ausreichend für hobby DJs, mehr brauch eigentlich keiner, wenn man nur schöne Übergänge zaubern will. Zum Scratchen völlig ausreichend wenn man seinen TT einzustellen weiß. Ansonsten alles dabei was man benötigt. Schrauben und Werkzeug, sogar ein Gewicht . Preis LEistung -TOP!

Literal, las prestaciones de estas aguja al precio que cuestan son increíbles. He probado otros dos modelos para escrachear y todas me saltaban, esta no, además de un sonido más que notable.

Reloop top, anche se il prezzo è molto basso un di qualità per Dj, un po' più bassa di sensibilità rispetto alle concorde, ma ottime per l'utilizzo dj e scratch

Employé pour le mix et le scratch,à voir dans le temps mais satisfait du rapport qualité prix. Attention toutefois ,j'ai cherché le stylus quelques temps avant de me rendre compte qu'il était coincé dans le protège cellule.

So far so good, haven't used for djing yet but have listened to a few records to find the quality of sound to be very good. Little light on the bottom end but still sounds amazing. But this is also moving from the shure m77s which had power and a lot of punch. Will edit once used for djing.. ****UPDATE**** Have had the chance to use these for dvs, and have noticed the tracking at the recommended weight is useless for DJing regular or dvs vinyl, I have to add more weight than I'd like, but for listening they are fantastic at 2g, scratching even at 3 to 3.5g these things if not careful will glide away on you. Anti-skate adjustments have helped. But unless you are setup on concrete I'm sure this will remain a problem for ever no matter what cart you use. Great product!
