Nope.
I use my AT-PL120 with a Shure M97xE cartridge almost every day now. They don’t make the PL120 anymore I think, it’s now the LP120.
I’ve gone through a few turntables in the last 5 decades from my first Garrard to my amazing Technics 1200 with that great Shure V-15-III cartridge through the 70’s (with a Phase Linear 700 & AR3a speakers), a few lesser known known ones and now the AT.
I’m happy with it.
@therealjrn LOL… I actually have 5 record players at home… For the Victrola, I purchased some soft-tone needles to make it slightly less loud.

@RiotDemon @therealjrn oops…
I was really into my stereo back in the “good ol’ days”. Doubt if my ears could tell the difference anymore.
@daveinwarsh @therealjrn Always upvote the retro/turbo encabulator!
The good old days:
Spoiler alert, it’s LOUD, right @daveinwarsh?
