The product received after the order is technically better designed than the one in the picture and also has a different design (it's more aesthetic).
Since the image on the offer page is not of the delivered product, I believe many who don't know what this product actually looks like will give up buying it, thinking it has a detachable part like the one in the picture.
If the picture on the offer page were changed, the product would have more customers.
The product has a construction nonconformity, namely at the assembly the head has an angle of inclination to the vertical, which means that the cartridge had to be mounted on the headshell with some intermediate washers on one of the fixing screws to ensure some parallelism of the cartridge to the disc and implicitly the optimal angle of the needle's drop. However, once the position is adjusted, the rest is okay.
I use it together with the AT-440MLB cartridge from AudioTechnica. I like the design more than the HS-10 version from AT. The format is solid, without any holes, completely matte black. It comes with screws and aluminum spacers for many other types of cartridges. The connection wires have different diameter connectors on the arm side compared to those from AT. So if you want to use AT gold-plated wires ;) you'll need to widen the connector tubes that go onto the pins or use the Monacor wires included. It makes perfect contact in the arm, even though the pins (the 4) are nickel-plated. You don't need anything else for a cartridge.
Excellent build quality, especially since it is made as a monoblock (by casting), which makes mounting the cartridge much easier, so it's not the headshell from the picture but one that's 10 times better. In conclusion, it's worth every penny.
