Special Notes
(1) The cartridge needs to be aligned and set-up properly
using an alignment protractor. Due to its special ability
to reveal detail, if the cartridge is improperly aligned,
you will hear distortion.
(2) We recommend that you detach the supplied brush. It's easier to align and optimize and it delivers better sound quality.
Customer Reviews
Brought an old favorite back to life.
Excellent stylus, glad to have proceed to the purchase with this vendor that I recommend with no reserve !
Makes the cartridge sound very good again.
the producto was delivered on time and they kept me posted of the whole process very accurately, perfect service
This is a top notch stylus! The sound is truly excellent! I was surprised at how great it actually is. It sounds very detailed, and when set up properly, sibilance and IGD are basically a thing of the past. HIGHLY recommended!
I have been using this on my Stanton 680 cartridge with great success. Very smooth and articulate. This stylus is much better than the generic .2 x.7 stylus I was using. Alignment was slightly difficult but a small bubble level helped. Why Stanton/Pickering made a cartridge body with thin metal screw mounts is a puzzle. You have to make sure the cartridge is perpendicular to the record surface. Over the years I have seen some cartridges with a tilt between the body and mount. I am sure the LPTunes Shibata stylus for the Stanton 680/681 would sound better, but for my use the Vivid Line stylus is more than adequate
