Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- The special spherical stylus is excellent for scratching, catering to specific DJ performance techniques.
- It boasts very high tracking ability, ensuring the stylus remains securely in the record groove during playback.

- Manufactured by Ortofon, a reputable brand in turntable accessories, suggesting quality and reliability.
- Offers a wide frequency range from 20 Hz to 18 kHz, capturing a broad spectrum of audio.
👎 Cons
- The recommended tracking force of 4 g is on the heavier side, which some users might find less gentle on their vinyl over time.
- The spherical stylus shape, while good for scratching, typically offers less detailed sound reproduction compared to elliptical or line-contact styli.
- The weight of the stylus is listed as 0.04 lbs, which might not be specific enough for precise tonearm balancing without conversion or further detail.
- It is a replacement stylus, meaning it requires an existing compatible cartridge and turntable for use.
- The provided frequency range, while adequate, does not extend into the higher ultrasonic frequencies that some audiophile styli might offer.
