Product Info

78 RPM STYLUS FOR SHURE M44 SERIES CARTRIDGE

The LP Gear 78 RPM replacement for the Shure N44-3 needle stylus is used with the Shure M44 M55 M80 series cartridges. The stylus features a 3.0 mil special polished diamond designed for playing 78 RPM records, thus resulting in minimal groove wear and an accurate rendition of voice and music. The stylus is made in Japan by a world-class manufacturer with a reputation for crafting musically excellent and high-quality replacement styli.

A very common misconception is that you can use an LP stylus for playing 78 RPM records. This is one quick and sure way to damage the 78 RPM record grooves. To maintain the playback fidelity of your 78 record, you really need to use a stylus designed for 78 RPM records, otherwise with just a single playing, you could ruin the fidelity of the record grooves. Moreover, the LP stylus is much narrower than the 78 RPM record groove hence the tip will slide to the bottom of the groove where debris has collected for many decades. This results in extraordinarily high-surface noise.
