An Elliptical Stylus: The Versatile Choice in the Hi-Fi Vinyl World
The elliptical diamond is a benchmark for those seeking increased definition compared to a conical profile, while maintaining tolerant playback for everyday use. This type of tip aims for better groove holding and more precise transient reproduction, for a more nuanced listening experience on a turntable.
Who Is This Replacement Diamond For?
This stylus is intended for vinyl turntable users who want to replace a worn diamond or restore their cartridge's original performance. It is particularly suitable for demanding home listening (Hi-Fi, vinyl collections, rediscovering albums), with simple installation and tracking force adjustment within the recommended range.
Features and Innovations
With a tracking force range of 1.0 to 1.5 g and a recommended value of 1.25 g, this diamond is designed for controlled playback. Its tracking capability reaches 70 µm (at 315 Hz with the recommended tracking force), while the lateral dynamic compliance of 25 µm/mN promotes good behavior on modulated passages. The tip radius (r/R 8/18 µm ) and the tracking angle of 20 degrees contribute to precise and consistent playback across a wide variety of pressings.
