REPLACEMENT FOR SHURE VN-478E VN 478E VN478E NEEDLE STYLUS (78 RPM STYLUS)

The replacement for the Shure VN-478E VN478E needle stylus is used with the Shure V15 Type IV phono cartridges. The stylus features a 3.0 mil polished diamond designed specifically for the correct tracing of the wide grooves of 78 RPM records. It results in minimal groove wear and accurate rendition of voice and music. The stylus is made in Japan by a world-class manufacturer with a reputation for crafting musically excellent and high-quality replacement styli.

A very common misconception is that you can use an LP stylus for playing 78 RPM records. This is one quick and sure way to damage the 78 RPM record grooves. To maintain the playback fidelity of your 78 record, you really need to use a stylus designed for 78 RPM records, otherwise with just a single playing, you could ruin the fidelity of the record grooves. Moreover, the LP stylus is much narrower than the 78 RPM record groove hence the tip will slide to the bottom of the groove where debris has collected for many decades. This results in extraordinarily high-surface noise.

New Stylus for my Empire 2000

My Sansui SR212 turntable needed a new stylus and LP Tunes has a high quality Japanese stylus for my old Empire cartridge.

Beautiful sound reproduction from my vinyl!

Shipped on time and at decent price.

A Sansui P-L95R sings again.

A good friend of mine has not had music in his home for many years, possibly decades. As part of my effort to bring it back to him, I repaired his Sansui P-L95R turntable that had a disk stuck inside. I ordered the belt I needed from LPTunes and now it sings again, We could not be more pleased!!!
