I disagree with your point about changing the stylus. I have no problem changing the Goldring stylus (for 1022GX and 1042 cartridges). But I assume there probably are problems with low-cost cartridges.
Changing a replaceable stylus is and should be very easy. Our point was explaining the reasoning behind Rega not offering a replaceable stylus on these cartridges when offerings from other manufacturers do offer that convenience. No matter how well designed, a replaceable stylus will result in lesser tolerances than a cartridge body that is one solid piece. This is far from the only thing that matter when it comes to choosing a cartridge, we only hoped to share Rega's reasoning behind their design choice. Happy listening!
INCREDIBLE video! Could not be any more of an understandable explanation.
