N21D VIVID LINE STYLUS UPGRADE FOR SHURE M2 CARTRIDGE

The N21D stylus is specified as the replacement stylus for the Shure M21D phono cartridge. The N21D Vivid Line stylus features a highly polished Vivid Line Contact diamond that elevates the sound quality and performance of the cartridge that had been shackled by the limited and underachieving performance of the Shure conical stylus fitted to the cartridge. With the N21D Vivid Line, listeners will hear an inspired exuberance in musical reality coaxed from the record grooves - clarity, detail, dynamics and air formerly missing from the cartridge. Welcome to the Vivid Line experience.

Belt

Hi guys, I’m sure this belt is just great. I actually need help getting the turntable to turn still. Is there a way that I can be on a phone call or even FaceTime to explain and show what’s going on with this Older turntable with any of your staff?

Good price for the stylus. Arrived quickly and easily. Will be ordering from them again!!

Stylus for Realistic System 1210 turntable

Perfect fit, timely delivery, would order from them again

Great cartridge!

The solid low end was a surprise! I generally feel 2 gram tracking force is a bit high but am going with it as specified. I do a lot of LP to digital conversions and this cartridge tracks well on older worn LPs with little inner grove distortion. I did do a realignment as the cartridge/headshell as received was a bit off. The sound is unremarkable which is to say neutral which is a pleasant change from cartridges I’ve used in the past! Overall a great performer especially at this price point. Definitely recommended!

Exactly as described

Part was identical to the worn out original. Had the new one installed in 10 seconds.

Good sounding

A warm, balanced good sounding stylus for the money. Give it a little break in time for best sound.
