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!

Belt

Hi guys, I’m sure this belt is just great. I actually need help getting the turntable to turn still. Is there a way that I can be on a phone call or even FaceTime to explain and show what’s going on with this Older turntable with any of your staff?

Good price for the stylus. Arrived quickly and easily. Will be ordering from them again!!

Perfect fit, timely delivery, would order from them again

Great cartridge!

The solid low end was a surprise! I generally feel 2 gram tracking force is a bit high but am going with it as specified. I do a lot of LP to digital conversions and this cartridge tracks well on older worn LPs with little inner grove distortion. I did do a realignment as the cartridge/headshell as received was a bit off. The sound is unremarkable which is to say neutral which is a pleasant change from cartridges I’ve used in the past! Overall a great performer especially at this price point. Definitely recommended!

Exactly as described

Part was identical to the worn out original. Had the new one installed in 10 seconds.

Good sounding

A warm, balanced good sounding stylus for the money. Give it a little break in time for best sound.

Excellent Stylus

After I listened to a few records that had playback issues I had to adjust the anti-skate,rebalance the tonearm and adjust the tracking force. I've played back several records with no issues. The sound from this stylus is great you can tell the difference when you hear the upper,lower and mid frequencies.

Sounds fantastic

I upgraded a basic needle to this on my old automatic Technics SL-QD22. Sounds very very good. This is my first time upgrading a needle so I only have the basic needles I have used before as a comparison. Very happy with my purchase.
