Review on Enhance Your Vinyl Experience with JICO 78 RPM Replacement Stylus for Shure N-44-7 N44-7 by John Bennett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Absolutely terrible.

I have an original Shure needle to compare and tried it in different shells, thing sounds TERRIBLE. Just unforgivably bad bass distortion, totally unusable. Day and night difference between OEM needles and these. Too bad maybe I'm crap, their ratings are high. My turntable is set up correctly and the OEM stylus in the exact same shell/cartridge sounds crystal clear compared to this piece of gloomy shit. Never again. What a waste of money.

Pros
  • 0.7 mil tapered diamond tip for high fidelity
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
