JICO replacement Shure N44-7X stylus

Purchased based on the other review here and several posts on various forums stating this stylus was great for the Shure SC35C, as it tracks at half the weight of the standard stylus while still minimizing noise on old, well loved records. I'm happy to report they were 100 percent accurate. Records that were so noisy and full of pops and clicks are now much more enjoyable with several becoming almost dead silent. This combo is now a permanent additon to a dedicated turntable for well loved records that I don't use on my tables with higher end cartridges. I have enjoyed it so much I also have a second headshell with this combo to swap between my other turntables. Make sure you give it some time to break in as is common with all styli, it will continue to get better with use. If your still getting lots of noise with this combo your records are most likely still dirty and I suggest you invest in an ultrasonic cleaner. If that doesn't help the record most likely is trashed. This is a great stylus at a great price! Most replacement stylus for discontinued carts seen to be to getting quite expensive and I suggest buying several now as they will only get more expensive as time goes on like everything else has been.

I purchased a Jico N44-7x stylus for use on my Shure SC35C and all I can say is WOW! This is what a great stylus sounds like. It minimizes surface noise on old mono and stereo pressings and thrusts the music forward in a very nice way. Not too bright or strident but forward. REALLY NICE for vintage pressings. BRAVO, Jico!

Fits Shure M 35X Cartridge perfectly. Sound is quality.
