A leading edge, top performance cartridge for stereo and discrete four-channel reproduction, the Nagaoka JT-555 offers long playing life and majestic tonal quality. The solid-black carbon cantilever with its very high rigidity and very low effective mass, faithfully transmits the most delicate movements of the stylus tip to the magnet. By combining the solid-black carbon cantilever with the superb Ultra-Ex stylus tip, the frequency response range has been widened to cover everything from the subsonic to the supersonic. Enjoy listening to your records again.

Amazing

This cartridge really sounds great. I set it at 1.4g and it tracks beautifully. Smooth natural sounding. Clear and clean. Just what my Techniques direct drive turntable needed.

A Fine Cartridge for this Price

I have bought three and a few styli from LPTunes and LPGear. I reviewed this elsewhere but sadly, these appear to be unavailable from now on.
LPTunes and LPGear appear to be connected, although their prices are not identical.
Service is good.

ViVid Line replacement for Shure m97xe cartridge

The stylus is amazing. The original stylus needed some adjustments. It was a bit harsh in the mid to higher. The new ViVid Line is awesome. No need to EQ needed. Everything pops out and doesn't cause fatigue. Nice lows, mids, and highs. If you what to replace/ update you Shure m97xe, this is it. Maybe a bit pricey but well worth it.

Perfect replacement

This replacement stylus has the same dimensions as the original, and fit perfectly. My vinyl records sounds wonderful now.

It's The Correct Belt.

Not much to say. The Previous belt became brittle and snapped, and I'm sure this one will too, one day. But for now, It's exactly what my record player needed.
