The additional mass, and a different material element in between the diamond tip and cantilever, cause some loss of nuance in transmitting groove modulation from the tip to the cantilever. The Nude Schwarz stylus (NSS) raises the performance of conical and all stylus tip types even further! With the NSS edition (Version 3.0), a nude diamond stylus (a whole diamond) is inserted, fastened and\/or glued directly to the cantilever - banishing the need for the crown (metal shank).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThus, you can hear higher fidelity and exhilarating sound quality in every NSS stylus that you install in your cartridge! The unencumbered polycrystalline diamond tip (for toughness and longer-playing life) directly traces the grooves for optimal retrieval of record groove modulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nude Schwarz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41903523168291,"sku":"EMOS0100SNSS","price":46.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2065\/1749\/files\/S100SNSS.jpg?v=1771293815","url":"https:\/\/lptunes.com\/products\/nss-c-lp-tunes-upgrade-replacement-for-empire-s100s-stylus-and-100s-cartridge","provider":"LP Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
