SUPER ANALOGUE STYLUS REPLACEMENT FOR SHURE VN5MR NEEDLE STYLUS


The JICO SAS stylus replacement for the Shure VN5MR stylus is used with the Shure VST V phono cartridge. The stylus elevates the above phono cartridges to their pinnacle of performance and sound quality. The SAS stylus tips are produced using a natural octahedral single-crystal diamond with the most advanced electronic engineering technology. The cantilever is made of special aluminum alloy tube and boron for extremely efficient transmission of vibrations. Rare earth metals with excellent electromagnetic conductivity compose the magnet for the stylus.

  1. Compatible with wider and deeper grooves (Micro Groove).
    The diamond tip consists of a meticulously selected natural single-crystal octahedron. Precision work on the crystal allows for a wide range of grooves. The Super Analogue Stylus can safely be used on recent records which tend to have deeper grooves and with 30-280 micron grooves opposed to the simple conventional 30-80 micron.
  2. Ultraprecision thinness and configuration results in supreme sound reproduction.
    The stylus tip is of optimum height and a uniformly ultra-precision finish. The Super Analogue Stylus has a curvature with a smaller radius that was impossible with the Micro Ridge Stylus. As thin as a razor blade and machined with ultraprecision, the stylus tip ensures unsupassed fidelity.
  3. Reduced distortion caused by needle abrasion.
    The Super Analogue Stylus tip eliminates lateral and frontal abrasion. Since the curvature radius does not change, the stylus accurately traces without missing any delicate signals. This makes it perfect for reproducing high frequencies and wide dynamic range which require a highly precise radius for tracking the inner record grooves!
  4. Polished finish that virtually preserves your record's grooves.
    World-class polishing technique is used on each stylus. This is designed to preserve the details of the record groove structure for a very long time virtually for the life of the vinyl.
  5. Extreme quality testing with emphasis on performance.
    Stringent quality inspections and tests using unique and high level technology are performed on all materials and at every level from the manufacture of parts that transmit vibrations to the cartridge (the cantilever, magnet and wire) to the final assembly by skilled artisans.

Please note: The Shure VN5MR stylus is not designed to be used with the Shure V15 VxMR phono cartridge. For the Shure V15 VxMR phono cartridge, you need the Shure VN5xMR stylus.

A great cartridge lives again!

My old Shure VST V cartridge sings again as it use to. I can hear the superb channel separation and subtle details buried in my collection again. Once again I'm getting lost in the musicians found in my vinyl instead of wondering if I can find an acceptable digital copy somewhere.
JICO has done a superb job keeping this technology alive. I hope they continue for a long time. :)

Stylus for Empire TC-40 TC40 cartridge
Dave Eddy (Blackhawk, US)
Empire S44E Stylus

I will admit to being somewhat disappointed when I opened the box and found a plain black stylus instead of the cool looking see-through candy colored stylus pictured. I understand that they covered themselves with the "color of the stylus varies" statement, but I guess I assumed it would be an actual color, rather than black. Aesthetics aside, delivery was on time, actually sooner than I expected, it was well packaged, and sounds great, so the important things were on the money. I deducted 1 star for the color thing--maybe that's being picky, but it's how I feel. But as I said, service, delivery, and product quality were on point.

Ordered new turntable stylus

The correct stylus was sent and it arrived very quickly.

Hello, I have a 1969 Gerrard SL95-B turntable wood base which I can stack 5 LP's. This needle replacement SHURE N-75EJ/ 2. What I enjoy about this needle it does not bend, after the tone arm is on top of 5 records the needle keeps it's position and doesn't bend . The quality sound is great. I have spent alot of money on other needles that the sound isn't clean and wears out very fast. I play my music records daily for hours.

It was easy to install and sounds great!
