Stylus for Sony PS-LX1 PS LX1 PSLX1 turntable
Melisa Swanson (Minneapolis, US)
Tunes in my house

We inherited an old turntable, which seemed to be useless, couldn’t get any albums to play properly. Decided to try a new needle. I used the free service to help you find the correct choice. It was shipped and packaged very well. And lo and behold we have beautiful music playing. I am beyond happy! And the prompt responses to help with selecting the right one was a pleasant surprise. Great customer service! Thank you

JICO SAS stylus replacement for Shure N110HE stylus
Terrance Galuska (Indianapolis, US)
New Life!

I purchased the SAS stylus for a p mount Shure 110HE cartridge for my Technics SL-M3. Before this stylus upgrade the cartridge was lifeless. With the upgrade it sounds amazing! Almost as good as my go to Cartridge which is a Technics EPC-310MC. Amazing quality and quick shipping from LP tunes
