I ordered this replacement headshell at least 2 months ago, and it is still on "backorder." I eventually emailed the company, and fortunately got a response the next day, but the message was no different; the item was on backorder. Eventually, I purchased another replacement headshell from Platinum Records, (in the store, not online). Unfortunately, that particular model didn't fit with my turntable. I am not sure if the one I ordered from JR will fit either.
These come with small 4 and 5 gram weights to keep the needle on th record but I found that they work fine without them, though they do come in handy when spinning when people are going to bump into your table. I purchased two of these headshells for regular use on a pair of technics sl-1210 turntables. The headshell is sturdy and easy to connect to the cartridge (stanton h5 cartridges i believe). The weights make your songs almost un-skippable, but your records wear out faster so use sparingly. Would definitely get these again.
This is probably a terrific headshell, but my M95ED requires mounting screws longer than those supplied by Stanton or Shure. My M95ED fits fine in the original headshell for the turntable, and in a previous Dual turntable.
Perfect fit for using on a audio-technica AT-PL120 turntable. Bought an extra headshell for 78 records with a SHURE M78S cartridge. Had difficulty with hum problem due to the fact that the cartridge (ShureM78S)instructions are wrong (go to Shure web site)(use only one jumper for ground LG&RG only "green-blue" mono). No fault of Stanton H4-S headshell.
Nice repacement and spare part.Vrey useful if you need more tahn one.
