    Great stylus. Dont listen to the reviewer that claims he/she has been using them for years and they arent good for scratching. I am a DJ and use these on my turntables and they are amazing for scratching! Both standard vinyl and Serato DVS control vinyl. As long as you setup your turntable properly, they wont skip or wear records very fast. You should be using a stylus protractor (Baerwald) to properly align the cart on the headshell, then you should be using a stylus weight to make sure the tracking force is dialed in correctly. As long as you do that, these will perform like champ when scratching. Even the almighty Shure M447 requires proper setup for it to be the beast its been known to be. Theres a guy on the DJ reddit as I write this asking why his Shure is skipping. He didnt set it up right. These Ortofon OM Pro S stylus are great and Id put them up against anything else!

    Otofon cartriges and stylii are for the audiophile. Theyre among the finest. But, the finest is almost always the most expensive. Im a serious classical musician, and I seek for the best in my audio equipment. I have a collection of 33s going back to over 50 years ago. I enjoy listening to them, but I want to protect them. The Ortofon is about the lightest tracking stylus for the lightest tracking cartrige available. Phono records have lost their popularity due to the emergence of CDs. So one would naturally expect phono stylii to go up in price . . . and they have . . . very much so. While shopping around, I was looking at various stylii for my Ortofon cartrige, while comparing prices. I was surprised and delighted when I found this stylus for about 1/4 to 1/5 the price of others with identical specifications. Ive had it for quite a while now, have used it a lot, and it works great. FANTASTIC STYLUS AT A FANTASTIC PRICE!!

Ortofon Concorde MK1 Styli

Physically, each series of DJ styli for Concorde MkI except for S-120, and Concorde MkII will fit on alternate cartridge bodies. However, these combinations are not supported by Ortofon, as each cartridge series is designed with a synergistic combination in mind - that is, each stylus is made to compliment the magnet and coil configuration of each cartridge body. For instance, using CLUB stylus with SCRATCH body will not provide the full benefit of either product, and might even provide undesired results, including (but not limited to) differences in output, unbalanced sound reproduction.

How to replace a stylus

Firstly lock the turntable tone arm, unscrew the cartridge, gently remove the stylus from the cartridge and insert a new stylus. A stylus is changed usually by pulling straight out and in the opposite direction of the turntable"s arm. If the stylus doesn"t come with directions, try these: with one hand, hold the cartridge to steady it. With the other hand, using a pair of tweezers, grasp the stylus from both sides and pull. Install the new stylus: holding the stylus from the top, press it gently into the space at the tip of the cartridge where the old stylus had been. Don"t force it.

Proper care comprises the following:

Cleaning of record by means of carbon fibre brush before and after every use. Cleaning of record by using record cleaning machine once in a while.

Cleaning of stylus by means of a fine antistatic brush. Please remember to remove dust from the diamond tip before and after playback of each record. Use the brush in the forward direction from the rear of the cartridge towards the stylus tip and never from stylus tip to the rear of the cartridge and never from side to side.

Proper adjustment of antiskating, azimuth and tracking force.

Spherical vs Ellpitical

The physical difference between a spherical and elliptical stylus is the shape of the diamond.

An elliptical diamond allows for more detailed sound quality, as it fits better within the groove and therefore has more contact area with the groove itself. Elliptical diamonds penetrate the groove walls further, extracting more intricate detail, especially in the high end, than is possible with a spherical diamond. It is commonly misrepresented that elliptical styli cause more wear than spherical styli.

In fact, spherical styli, since they have a smaller contact area and more pressure, cause more immediate wear than elliptical styli, but in a smaller area of the groove itself. Elliptical styli, since they have more weight distribution amongst a larger contact area, will wear the groove slower, but will wear more of the groove over repeated backcueing.
