Stylus DJ200i

Swapped out my old cartridge tip and the DJ200i snapped on without any fuss. The user-replaceable design is a lifesaver, no need to replace the whole headshell, and the sound feels noticeably cleaner right out of the box.

The tracking on this replacement stylus is noticeably more precise than the worn-out original it replaced. Even on scratched vinyl, the sound stays clear and detailed.

Swapping this replacement stylus in took about ten seconds and my vinyl immediately sounded brighter, especially on the high end where things had gone muddy. It's user-replaceable, which is exactly what I wanted instead of buying a whole new cartridge.
