In 1969 as a freshman in college, I ordered an Allied (made by Pioneer) stereo amp and Realistic (made by BSR) turntable. Many years later, when solid state became plentiful and reliable, I moth balled the old tube amp and turntable in my basement. When I retired in 2015 I decided to restore the amp with filter and coupling capacitor updates for a revisit to vinyl. As part of the restoration process I replaced the stylus on the turntable. I have to say that I am very pleased with the mellow sound of vinyl... real or nostalgically imagined : ) Thank you LP Tunes for stocking a part for my old turntable!
