Pickering XV-625 stylus upgrade to 1200e

1200e upgrade brought all the extra dynamics and detail I was looking for! Fit right plays right, the aftermarket market brush I found lacking, I still had my OEM horsehair brush however so no worries. It was a good value!

Pickering XV-15/1200e

Always wanted this cart. Found a body in great condition and then bought the stylus.My first impressions were negative as every surface defect was real prominent. After some arm geometry tweaking,and playing with VTF & VTA the cart has settled down and the tics/pops have mostly disappeared but still more prominent than I would like. My other line contact carts do not seem to have this issue. The playback is very good in terms of bass,mids,and treble. Hoping for more wear in of the stylus with continued playing to resolve any lingering issues. My advice is make sure your arm has height adjustment and pay attention to VTA & VTF. Clean the stylus well before using.

Pickering XV-15 1200E Stylus used in a 625E body

My stylus purchase came in this afternoon, inspected the stylus under a USB microscope, great stylus tip! I swapped the brush with the original Pickering brush. I had been listening to the OE Pickering 625E stylus just before the 1200E install. The OEM gave a very good full sound , the 1200E is that and so much more. More dynamic and detailed, clean sounding, a very worthwhile upgrade!

Better than I thought

This JICO nude elliptical stylus is super good. I replaced the stylus on my Shure M44-7 which is more of a DJ cartridge and I didn't care much for a conical/spherical one that was on it. Everyone I talked to about a change recommended the N55 for it. It was a little pricey, and usually I'll buy a new cartridge instead of chance something I'm not familiar with, but I bit the bullet and ordered the N55 from the recommendations. To my surprise, it's one of the better sounding carts I have and that's saying a lot as I use Grado and Ortofon both in MM, and a Denon MC cart. Even not broken in, I was really impressed with it. So much so, I may resurrect my on M99E that's on one of my Dual's with a Jico nude stylus. This JICO stylus I bought is on my vintage Pioneer PL 518.

Belt fits perfect

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.
