Shibata stylus

I can't say what these carts originally sounded like, but I can tell you that with this stylus installed, an old Pickering that I got at a garage sale for $30 is sounding like a high-end modern MM cart. Very pleased.

Spendy but ideal for an XV-15

I moved an XV-15 from an old Dual turntable to a new Pro-Ject Debut Carbon. I took a chance on the Shibata stylus and I'm glad I did. The results are frankly amazing. It's possibly the best sounding MM setup I've heard.
