AUDIO-TECHNICA AT618 RECORD WEIGHT CLAMP DISC STABILIZER

The Audio Technica AT618 Non-resonant Record Weight Clamp Disc Stabilizer is a very useful accessory for music listeners, audio enthusiasts, and DJ's who require higher fidelity sound quality and extractive performance from their records. The AT618 stabilizer's specially inert material dampens resonance as it sits on top of the record over the turntable spindle and applies 600 grams of weight, holding the record firmly in place while stabilizing the record and improving overall sound quality. This is especially useful when playing records where bass vibration or resonance is an issue, when playing a slightly warped record or when recording your vinyl into your computer and you need a cleaner sound.

Proven in use for over four decades in audiophile turntable systems, the Audio-Technica AT618 stabilizer has in recent years been rediscovered by respected vinyl loving DJs like James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem), Prins Thomas and Jacques Renault. The Audio-Technica AT618 stabilizer covers your labels if you're concerned with people who can successfully identify obscure music a DJ plays (trainspotters). It works wonders on those records that are slightly warped.

The Audio Technica AT618 is recommended for use with high torque turntables with firm platter suspension. It will not work well with turntables that have soft suspension and weak drive systems.

Sounds great, with a caveat...

As the title suggests, this stylus sounds very good. But it is lacking in the very highest registers (tinkling sleighbells, watch chimes, etc). Until it is inserted into a 66 series or one of its many clones, then that upper register comes alive. Empire made 2000s with at least 2 different electrical specs, those around 500 ohms impedance, and those around 1000 ohms. The 1000 ohms models suffer high treble loss, while the lower inductance/impedance models do not.

ORTOFON DUAL DN-150E STYLUS

search for genuine ORTOFON replacement easy, order/payment a breeze, shipped quick and arrived on time. went with a genuine ORTOFON for my vintage dual changer . Just acquired a beautiful restored yamaha cr-1020 receiver; system sounded like crap so I rewired the speakers (stacked large advents). big improvement but then the highs were thin scratchy and poorly defined, hence the new stylus. now it's starting to really sound like something. i'll give you a detailed review of the stylus after I've listened to more of the records. they all sound different now.

So far so good

Just got it and it sounds really nice.

New stylus works.great. Fast shipping. Excellent customer service. Thanks.

Mom’s old cartridge is alive!!

I wanted to restore my mom’s old Shure RXT-4 (Radio Shack version of the M97ED) and this stylus is just perfect!! I never imagined how beautiful this cartridge with this stylus could sound! Warm mellow melodies for Jazz and Classical! Very well balanced!! Love it! I pair it with my Technics SL-1200Mk2 and SL-D2

very satisified

received the belt fairly quickly and it fit great and the turntable works great now.....thank you very much
