A Stylus Designed to Bring Your Phono Cartridge Back to Life
This elliptical stylus is intended for users who want to restore the original performance of their turntable without changing the entire cartridge. Its elliptical profile aims for finer groove reading than a conical tip, with more nuanced reproduction of transients, vocals, and cymbals.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Ideal for vinyl enthusiasts, DJs, and hi-fi lovers who want a reliable replacement for home listening, home studio use, or regular DJ setup use. It is particularly suitable if you seek clean playback, good groove holding, and controlled wear, provided the recommended tracking force is respected.
Features and Innovations
The lateral dynamic compliance of 20 µm/mN promotes good groove tracking, while the tracking ability of 70 µm (at 315 Hz with the recommended tracking force) helps limit distortion during demanding passages. The stylus tip radius r/R 8/18 µm and the effective mass of 0.5 mg contribute to agile and detailed playback. For optimal integration, adhere to the tracking force range of 1.6 to 2.0 g and the tracking angle of 20 degrees.
