Description

The Ortofon OM78 Stylus is a replacement for your existing Ortofon OM cartridge. It features a stylus profile suitable for playing wider 78 RPM shellac record grooves.

You should upgrade your stylus when it starts to collect a lot of dust after each playback or when you notice some distortion and channel separation during listening. We find with proper care, up to 1000 hours is possible without degradation of performance.
