This cart came with my 1982 NAD tt, and has been resting in its original box since about 1989. I sold the NAD tt in 1989, then bought the Denon DP45F tt in the same year, 1989. I kept the NAD cart, put it back in its original box, with all the original paperwork and performance graph. Then, in 1997 I went to Radio Shack and bought an ADC QLM 32 Mk III stylus for it. Never installed it on my Denon DP45F tt....used my Shure V15 type RS cart.

The NAD cart (actually ADC made for NAD) was my cart from college. I always thought it sounded good, back then.

When I put the ADC stylus on the NAD 9200 cart, set it up, and played a 1966 LP of Charlie Byrd "Touch of Gold"....I WAS BLOWN AWAY!!!!

This cart is VERY GOOD!!! I expected mid-fi sound, but got much better!! Very detailed, very tight bass, and extremely good high end detail.

Also found there are many OEM replacement styli still available for this cartridge.

Just thought I'd share!
