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. :)

Turntable brought back to life

Glad that I found LP tunes while searching for a replacement belt for my 1983 Technics turntable, which had been in storage in a hot attic over 10 years, the belt was an exact fit, Enjoying my vinyl again!
Ill be searching LP tunes to replace my stylus soon and keep the current one as a back-up

Excellent stylus for KLH Model 20

The sound and fidelity are excellent. A big improvement over old used styli like those you might find on eBay, or incompatible versions you might find cheap on Amazon. Stick with this one.

Quick Service

First time ordering (Pickering DLE Stylus) and happy with service.

Stylus

I have a vintage, Realistic turntable that I lost the stylus. I looked a lot of places online, but there were just so many styles and variations. I was concerned I wouldn’t find the right one for my vintage turntable. I contacted LP tunes. I provided them the cartridge model # and they recommend a stylus. The stylus purchased arrived with fast delivery, the price was comparable to most others, and when it arrived and slid right into the cartridge and played my vinyl I could not have been more happy. I thank LP tunes for being prompt, having great communication and helping me out with my order. I will definitely order again.

Sounds great!

I'm a pretty new record collector. To get started, I purchased a vintage Sony PS-LX2 at the thrift store and replaced it's original stylus with this. Then I set the counterweight, the tracking force and made sure the cartridge was aligned - low and behold - great sounding Music!
