These are OEM Ortofon and both sound excellent on either a Concorde or OM body. I've played hundreds of LPs with both. I'm hard pressed to say there's a significant difference between the two. When it comes time to replace, I'll go with the 30 (save a few bucks) and be happy with it.

Although these are excellent in capturing great detail with Near Mint stereo LPs, they also capture an inordinate number of click and pops with lesser condition records. For those less than perfect records, I often prefer using a cartridge with spherical or elliptical stylus.

The Stylus 20 is the best value, IMHO. It's a nude elliptical - Opus 104 09:25:49 06/27/12 (2)
