Replacement for Shure VN-45HE VN45HE stylus

JICO REPLACEMENT SHURE VN-45HE VN45HE VN 45HE STYLUS

The VN-45HE stylus is equipped with a Super Ellitical diamond, which provides superior tracing and tracking of record grooves producing excellent reproduction of sound, voice, & harmonics.

The color of this stylus has changed over the years. Please be sure to compare your stylus with this stylus before ordering. Do not order this stylus if it looks different than the stylus that you have.

Beware of counterfeits! There is only one Jico distributor in the US, Canada and all of the Americas: LP Tunes. A Jico stylus comes in Jico packaging or with Jico US engraved on the stylus. All others are selling styli of unknown origin and quality. Contact us to verify the authenticity of the claimed Jico stylus before buying.

VN45HE JICO SAS/S  STYKUS REPLACEMENT FOR SHURE VN-45HE VN45HE VN 45HE STYLUS

The SAS/S replacement for the Shure VN-45HE stylus elevates the cartridge to its pinnacle performance and sound quality. The SAS tips are produced using a natural octahedral single-crystal diamond with the most advanced electronic engineering technology. The SAS/S replaces the previous SAS boron cantilever with a crystalline sapphire cantilever.  Rare earth metals with excellent electromagnetic conductivity compose the magnet for the stylus.

1. Compatible with wider and deeper grooves (Micro Groove).
2. The diamond tip consists of a meticulously selected natural single-crystal octahedron. Precision work on the crystal allows for a wide range of grooves. The Super Analogue Stylus can safely be used on recent records which tend to have deeper grooves and with 30-280 micron grooves opposed to the simple conventional 30-80 micron.
3. Ultra precision thinness and configuration results in supreme sound reproduction.
4. The stylus tip is of optimum height and a uniformly ultra-precision finish. The Super Analogue Stylus has a curvature with a smaller radius that was impossible with the Micro Ridge Stylus. As thin as a razor blade and machined with ultra precision, the stylus tip ensures unsurpassed fidelity.
5. Reduced distortion caused by needle abrasion.
6. The Super Analogue Stylus tip eliminates lateral and frontal abrasion. Since the curvature radius does not change, the stylus accurately traces without missing any delicate signals. This makes it perfect for reproducing high frequencies and wide dynamic range which require a highly precise radius for tracking the inner record grooves!
7. Polished finish that virtually preserves your record's grooves.
8. World-class polishing technique is used on each stylus. This is designed to preserve the details of the record groove structure for a very long time virtually for the life of the vinyl.
9. Extreme quality testing with emphasis on performance.
10. Stringent quality inspections and tests using unique and high level technology are performed on all materials and at every level from the manufacture of parts that transmit vibrations to the cartridge (the cantilever, magnet and wire) to the final assembly by skilled artisans.

JICO SAS ZIRCONIA REPLACEMENT FOR SHURE VN45HE STYLUS 
- Sounds astonishingly original and real - beyond all imitation

In the process of developing the "SETO-HORI" ceramic cartridge, which was launched in 2018, JICO found that material hardness is an important factor in determining sound quality. Jico researched for the applicable material and finally decided on Zirconia. Since the mass of zirconia is larger than that of other materials often used as cantilevers, such as boron, Jico first reduced the mass by processing the cantilever into a hollow pipe shape. Moreover, Jico succeeded in suppressing split resonance and reducing the effective mass as seen from the tip of the stylus by covering the joint pipe to the middle of the surface of the cantilever. This covering also makes the cantilever close to a tapered shape which is ideal.

As a result, Jico ultimately created the clear and precise sound, that was totally different from the preceding other cantilevers’ lineup (aluminum, boron, sapphire, and ruby). This was the sound Jico was seeking. Given the scarcity of cantilever material, this stylus is destined for very limited production. Please take this opportunity to enjoy.
