Ortofon Scratch Concorde Mk II - Twin Pack

The stylus is the most important part of your turntable, as it's the only part of your cartridge that makes contact with the record. So if you use a subpar stylus, you'll experience subpar sound. A low-quality stylus can also damage your record. After all, it's exerting roughly 6,000 pounds of pressure per square inch! Styli are made of ultra-hard materials to prevent premature wear. Styli also come in various shapes. A spherical stylus like the Concorde MkII SCRATCH picks up less surface noise than other shapes, but with inferior frequency response, higher distortion, and inferior phase response. An elliptical stylus delivers superior audio performance but wears down faster than a spherical one.
