This is one of the great audio bargains. It differs from the AT150MLX in its body composition (plastic), cantilever composition (aluminum), and a thicker diameter cantilever. The fixed coil mechanism has an increased number of windings and different wire material. The nude-mounted MicroLine diamond tip and the dual-magnet setup of the AT150MLX are retained. The increased cantilever mass minimally degrades the tracking performance, but this cartridge still out-tracked those of other manufacturers and was ...
