The N3D stylus is specified as the replacement stylus for the Shure M3D phono cartridge. The N3D Vivid Line features a highly polished Vivid Line Contact diamond that elevates the sound quality and performance of the cartridge that has been shackled by the limited and underachieving capacity of the Shure conical stylus. With the N3D Vivid Line, listeners will hear an inspired exuberance in musical reality gracefully coaxed from the record grooves - clarity, detail, dynamics and air formerly missing from the cartridge. Welcome to the Vivid Line experience.
