Hi guys cool video,can you mount this cartridge on one of your Rega's & assess the hum when the arm is over the "run out groove" or very close to the motor? Cheers keep up the good work I've been a subscriber for quite a while & love your content,you deserve more subs! #vinyl4ever

[@Dreamonoids]

We will infidelity be mounting it and testing it. Video soon!

The Opus 3 on my Sondek/Valhalla/Ittok/Cirkus is the quietest Grado I've had as the cartridge tracks towards the center...Red, Gold, XTZ, Sonata, Platinum, all had more AC hum than this cartridge...but, mine is also the low output version, FWIW

Is the stylus replaceable?

[@Dreamonoids]

That's a good question. We will ask and get back to you. If so, it doesn't appear to be user replaceable.

[@rickblank2816]

@@Dreamonoids Like all wood bodied Grados the stylus is not user replaceable.

Grado Labs is the biggest nickel & dime brand in existence. If something falls on the floor and gets crap on it, they'll just wipe it off and still package it as new. In Canada, Grado's using a guy out of his own measly house where inventory is stored in a humid basement ! If you buy anything Grado in Canada, big chance you're gonna get something previously used or repaired !

[@Dreamonoids]

Sorry to hear that. We get our stuff from Brooklyn New York where their headquarters is located. Not familiar with the Canadian market.

@@Dreamonoids I think I read a review somewhere Grado employees gotta bring their own pens to work.

Who makes this shit up, what a bunch of crap, been using Grado wood bodies for years. Great Bang for the buck. And by the way, they are Moving Irons not Moving Magnetics.

@@1999zrx1100 In the mid 80's I was as financially struggling young black man out of college and trade school. Back then the first Grado cartridge I ever bought blew away every previous cartridge I ever owned. I recently purchased a Grado Opus3. This is a great company that makes highly musical products then and now. I understand that there are some who won't find Grado cartridges suitable to their desires. On the other hand some of the nonsense that they are saying about Grado is b$#&%! and the they need to get a freakin' life! I agree with you more than 100% !👍👍👍
