Product Description:
The M97xE is a superbly tracking, neutral, smooth-sounding magnetic cartridge, designed to provide long hours of undistorted, easy listening, without fatiguing the ear or tiring the mind. This cartridge is able to accurately reproduce very difficult musical passages, particularly in the high-frequency range, where audio modulations are the smallest and most concentrated, and stylus tip movement is consequently the most rapid. Its highly precise tracking ability and flat frequency response are made possible by Shure's unique Type II low-mass thin-wall aluminum alloy stylus cantilever, combined with a precision-crafted, finely polished, elliptical diamond tip. PRODUCT FEATURES: Tone Arm Mount - Standard 1/2 inch; Cartridge Type - Moving magnet; Dynamic Stabilizer damper / de-statcizer; Die cast aluminum mounting block; Side Guard stylus protection system; Shure Type II - Very low mass; Heat-treated aluminum alloy / tubular; 1.0 mil wall thickness / 20 mil diameter; Polished natural gemstone; Elliptical.The M97xE includes the following accessories: Headshell Screwdriver; Stylus cleaning brush; User Guide; Mounting hardware; Stylus guard.

- Very Nice Cartridge
I bought this cartridge to put on my temporary turntable set-up (JVC QL-A220) while my Music Hall MMF 7.1 with an Eroica H cartridge is put away for storage.That being said, I purchased this because it was a recommended buy from The Absolute Sound as well as other resources I found on the internet.After several hours of use, I can already hear the cartridge starting to open up with sound.The highs are crisp but not too bright and the bass is strong and not muddy sounding.As it continues to ...

- Shure M97xE High-Performance Magnetic Phono Cartridge
This is the most fantastic magnetic phono cartridge I have ever owned.I used to have problems with records skipping intermitently while I was trying to record them to my hard disk to make CD's out of the old music which has never been available on CD's.After buying the Sure M97xE, I can play the record and walk into the room without skips in the finished product.The clarity and separation of right and left channels is remarkable.No distortion is detected.Only smooth true sound is produced. ...

- shure M97xE
For the money this is the best buyI ever had . Just replaceda less than a year old Orto Samba $250(can not change the needle on Samba). The Shure was easier to install on my Revox B791 and the sound is great( not as detailed as the Samba) but more full and well ballanced with better bass.
Do not skip getting the replaceble needle !!!WHo knows how long they will be arowndat that price...

- Shure M97xE well worth the price
I picked up the Shure M97xE to use as a back up to an AT95E. I really like the sound of this Shure. It is broken in now and I have a hard time deciding between it and the AT95E. The brush also does a good job of cleaning the track before the stylus comes across. Well worth the purchase price.

- Not what I'd hoped for
I chose this cartridge to replace my AT PC440LC on a new Technics SL1200MKII based on the many positive reviews I've read on the net. Back when I bought the AT, I really wanted to get a V15, again, based on all of the favorable reviews. But the AV shop where I worked didn't carry Sure.So, when I won a sales contest that covered the cost of the AT I hesitantly bought it without hearing it, nor reading anything about it.Well, I count that as a huge stroke of luck, as I have absolutely loved the AT ...
