Customer Reviews
I will return it due to broken stylus when stylus protector was removed. I love this cartridge but can't use it.
Hello Thomas, I'm sorry that the stylus broke while you were removing the stylus guard. We would be willing to try and work with you on getting you another cartridge. We feel its a little unfair to rate the product as 1 star because of this. Please consider how you would like to proceed. Email me directly at rgrado@gradolabs.com if you would like to get the cartridge replaced.
first time buying a quality cartridge sounds great thanks
The cart was easy to align. It tracks great and the sound is warm and detailed.
Have been using Grado for ever and this recent upgrade to the Platinum 3 was worth every penny! The creation of sound with this is wonderful!
We finally found an audio expert who was able to put our 26 year-old Rega Planar 3 back in service after movers destroyed the original Grado pickup through careless packing along with failure to secure the tonearm. The new Grado Platinum pickup sounds absolutely fantastic.
