Can the stylus be replaced on the cartridge? And how does it compare to the Shure M97XE?

The cartridge is offered in trade for a new one, instead of replacing the stylus, as in the M97xE. I like the Denon sound better on account of its netural tone and clarity, instead of the softer, slightly rolled off treble of the M97xE. Regards.

No, the stylus cannot be replaced. Having owned the shire m97xe before, it sounds more responsive and has better tracking. Also, dirtier records sound better on the denon.

This one looks to be the replacement stylus: Pfanstiehl Vinyl Record Player 793-D7M Diamond Needle Stylus, Replaced 793-D7. I found it here in Amazon, and compared it to the one I have. The vendor I bought my unit from included an extra stylus.

If you go to the manufacturer's web site www.ionaudio.com they sell replacement styluses (stylii?) under "Turntable Accessories."

Yes you can and when you can afford to get the shibata stylus for this cartridge and you will have a top sound

Unfortunately the stylus and cartridge of this model are built in. They cannot be replaced. Hence the cheap price.

No. Unfortunately that stylus is meant for a turntable with a head shell and is typically used in a Professional turntable. There are good replacement styli for that specific table but they would have to be AT brand or something comparable.

Yes, I think they still make it, but the cantilever is very fragile and unless the 78 styli has a stronger cantilever, it'll get bent with normal use like the LP stylus of mine did. I'd steer clear.

The Azur 651P will be good with any cartridge. If you are currently using MM and at a later date decide to upgrade a lot, then you will likely be getting a MC type of stylus and would need the 651P anyway. Good luck!

Yes, I did get a couple of different stylus needles for mine, but really the one that came with the unit sounds the best. The other work, but you have to trim the plastic of the cartridge and adjust, but I managed to get both to snap in. It just snaps in, and these cartridges are flexible plastic, not completely rigid plastic. So if you have any trouble getting it to fit, it may have to be looked at carefully and then trim a tab or heat melt a tab to fit. But the original one is great. I have a 78rpm needle and the smaller 33rpm needle, but the original sounds great on both. Great is a relative term here, but it plays all the records and it's portable.

The Audio-Technica AT311EP will replace the Technics P23, and you might hear an improvement in sound quality. It's probably the best p-mount cartridge you can get for about $30. A little cheaper is the Audio-Technica AT92ECD (practically the same cartridge) for about $5 less on average. You can't go wrong with either of these. Good Luck!P.S.---An added benefit of the AT92ECD cartridge is that it comes with a convenient small screwdriver to facilitate easier installation of the cartridge on your turntable. Another thing to note is that you would only use the p-mount cartridge, itself, and not the universal adapter supplied for non-p-mount turntables. I hope that helps!

No, not according to the application site. You may try audio-technical.com and see if they have another stylus for the fisher. Steve

No, this model stylus is only for 33 and 45 rpm records. There are 78 rpm styli for this cartridge available elsewhere online.

No. I do not think this would help. I used this sound card in that capacity. I later abandoned it and went back to the on board sound card. I could not tell a difference. You are better off spending money on the cartridge and stylus in the turntable.

I'm sorry, I have no idea where you can get a new stylus tip. I think I would start by asking the sellers if they have replacement tips. Sorry I don't know any more.

Oh, for sure. Great turntable. It has a universal head shell, so, it works. Still enjoying mine. Getting ready to purchase an additional stylus replacement so I will have it when needed.

Yes, the stylus is replaceable. The cartridge is the Rega Carbon with an elliptical stylus, Gene Rubin
