The sound quality, depth and detail will keep you listening to music more than ever. I previously owned the AT95E cartridge and thought there wouldn't be much difference in sound. Boy was I in for a surprise! It took me about an hour to mount the cartridge in the head-shell. It comes in a beautiful box with a screwdriver, a brush, the screws and nuts and very clear instructions. I aligned it with a protractor, reset the turntable counterweight to 0 because this cartridge is about 2 grams heavier than the AT95E, so the tone arm needs to be re-balanced to get the proper 1.4 grams of recommended tracking force. The AT95E is a fine cartridge and an amazing value, but the AT100E is light years ahead! I like that it is well balanced, it gives strong clear low frequencies, beautiful mid range and crisp highs. It's not very forgiving with old scratchy records compared to the AT95E but will pull very good sound out of them. About the price I can only say It's amazing to get this quality for under 100 dollars. My personal recommendation: go for it, you will not be disappointed! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars No-Brainer for Fifty Dollars *by E***K on Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2016* Not sure if Amazon will continue selling at $50, but for that price, these are an absolute no-brainer.Replaced an AT14 which had a fairly worn stylus (it was past due...). Quickly noticed sharper highs, tighter bass, and less low-mid "boxiness." Some of that is due, I'm sure, to just having a new stylus, but, these are much, much nicer sounding than the very popular AT95e, and half the price of the AT120e. My friend has the 120e on her deck; quite nice, but not twice the price nice.This is not an "audiophile," cartridge; I notice a bit of smearing in the higher high frequencies, and the someone that is used to a true and fully high end signal chain may find themselves a bit disappointed. This is more than enough cart, though, for the home listener who just wants to enjoy their records in a non-fussy way. If you're rocking an old, worn out cartridge, or you got a deck that came stock with a piece-of-poop cartridge, this is an absurdly affordable and difference-making upgrade. I'll certainly spend more on a cartridge one of these days, but I feel for a drastically apparent upgrade I'd have to spend 4-8 times as much.One caveat: I seem to recall that this cartridge didn't ship with mounting screws. I had a different depth cartridge on my deck, and had to scrounge around my desk drawer for the right size, which I fortunately had on hand. Double-check with customer service if that might be an issue for you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Four Stars *by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2016* not the best audio technical makes but works well --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/1523880-audio-technica-at100e-phonograph-cartridge](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/1523880-audio-technica-at100e-phonograph-cartridge) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
