Audio Technica CN5625AL .7 mil Conical Half-inch Standard Mount Cartridge Reviews

I recently decided to take my old system out of storage and stat playing very old records I had. I really didn't listen to vinyl in years. I was using an old Scott Table. I started to listen and the sound was going in and out, right away, I thought it is the needle and this AT was the cheapest I found. after receiving it I hooked it up and to my surprise it sounded the same...duh... so I pulled up and old Hitachi table and hooked it up to the system...you are right, the same thing. I took the table and hooked it up to my surround sound system ( Onkyo receiver and Bose speakers) and it sounded OK, Then I plugged up the Scott table with the old needle and they both sounded similar. I found the sound from this cartridge satisfying but not good. The base was a little flat and the highs a little scratchy but yet I gave it 4 stars because I think it is a good value. all in all happy with the cartridge.

Fine for the money - A. IZOLD - CFO, Ohio, USA
I bought this to replace an old A-T cartridge, and I'm using it to archive vinyl as WAV files and CDs. The sound quality if fine, but not exceptional. (What do you expect for around ?) The tracking is good as well. I'm not unhappy with it, but I think I'll spend a bit more next time...

Audio Technica AT6012 Record Care Kit - Includes Record Care Solution, Brush Pad, Storage Base and Adhesive Tape

Audio Technica AT6012 Record Care Kit - Includes Record Care Solution, Brush Pad, Storage Base and Adhesive Tape Reviews



More Picture


The brush in this kit has two holes in the top which are for pouring the cleaning solution into. The solution is then spread out evenly to dampen the brush. It works well for removing dust and set in stains from dirt. However, the brush is pretty soft and gentle. I don't think it would work too well on records that have a lot of paper stuck in them. The first record I used it on came out shiny and sounded much clearer. Static, clicks and pops were virtually eliminated. The only con I can think of is that you don't get a lot of solution in this kit. The bottle is good for maybe 50-100 records at most. If you plan to do more than that you'll need a refill or replacement.

Works well, good quality - S. Hoover - North Carolina
Got a lot of dust off my old LPs. Not quite as nice as my old Discwasher. I went with this one because the reviewsbr /on the new Discwasher were not too good. I only wish it came with more fluid-I will run out quickly. I plan to findbr /a recipe for cleaning fluid as all the makers of this stuff are so overpriced-seems like I could make a couple gallons for their price on a few ounces. I've found one recipe so far that is just 50:50 rubbing alcohol and water...any other recipes out there?

Best out there - Al Errico - Aurora, IL
This AT cleaning brush and fluid is actually better than the one I had in the 70's the brush is bigger and has more grooves and the fluid is the same. Since they now make the discwasher in china and it is terrible this is the solution for the average listener. I am Very pleased. The bottle is a little hard to open right and if you open it wrong you have to hold the cap on or tape it. No big deal.
