The stylus is a consumable product with a typical service life of approximately 300-400 hours. Damage caused by improper handling, excessive tracking force, low-quality records, or unstable turntable surfaces may reduce the lifespan of the stylus tip. As the tip's radius of curvature increases over time, its ability to accurately track high-frequency signals in the groove diminishes. When o details decrease, high frequencies become less clear, and sound quality becomes increasingly dull, it may be time to consider replacing the cartridge. The stylus cantilever is constructed from high-quality materials, enhancing durability and helping maintain consistent o performance. Output voltage: 4.2 mV. Frequency response: 20 Hz - 20 kHz.
