LP TUNES CARBON FIDELITY CFN95SE STYLUS 
- Music that makes you want to listen.™

Listen to the new voice of music. Carbon fiber composites offer 10 times the strength of steel at half the weight. Codeveloped and designed with LP TUNES by Audio-Technica's best engineers, the new Carbon Fidelity 95 Spectra Elliptical (CFN95SE) stylus benefits from the latest quality parts and materials technology featuring a carbon fiber cantilever that seriously upgrades performance. The updated design, tight specifications, Twin-Flux™ magnets, high-quality moving system fulcrum and radial damping ring allied with a Spectra elliptical diamond tip produce music that makes you want to listen.

Existing CF95SE cartridge owners will continue to enjoy their elevated sound quality with this stylus. Owners of AT95 cartridges and its many models can also elevate sound quality by simply swapping their existing stylus with the CFN95SE stylus.

Mastered to illuminate against lofty cartridges beyond the economics of most listeners, the CF95SE touches and endears the more you listen. You won't want to go back to your underperforming or pricey cartridge. You'll hear, feel and sense the music exquisitely rendered — harmonically full-bodied, refractive and refreshingly crystal clean with luminous detail spatially radiating with realness. You'll experience remarkable note clarity, projection and nuanced tonal complexity previously unheard and unappreciated.1

Very nice stylus...frustrating pricing.

I'm a big fan of the CFN95SE...it's a significant upgrade of the stuck AT-LP120 stylus, and the latest one I received sounded broken-in straight out of the box.

Unfortunately, it was also significantly more expensive than the last one I'd bought just nine months ago, which was $49.99. A 20% price hike in such short a time is pretty extreme. Five stars for the stylus...one star for that price hike!

Performs well

Performs well and appears stronger than the Music Hall Spirit I bought this to replace.
It is not a 'shiny' stylus so it is difficult to tell how clean it is.
Well packaged by the team at LP Gear.

Only partway through the recommended break-in period

I have used my new CFN95SE stylus for only three hours, 10% of the recommended break-in period. The high end is not as bright as the stock ATN95e; less brassy might be a fitting description. Mid-range and low end are accurately reproduced; female vocalists excel. Is it worth the $15 premium over a stock ATN95E replacement? So far, I think it is.

Byron Chitty (Greenville, US)
Worth It

Better tracking and a crisper high end.

Just what I needed

In five minutes I located and ordered the belt for a random old turntable I found at a garage sale. The part came quickly and fit perfectly!

The original belt had deteriorated into dust, I don’t know how I could have found the right one without being able to look it up by make & model. (there was nothing left to measure!). Thanks to LP Tunes I was able to get this $10 turntable working and sounding great!
