SHURE STYLUS FORCE GAUGE SFG-2

The Shure SFG-2 stylus force gauge is an industry standard and comes complete with storage box and easy-to-understand instructions. A proper set stylus tracking force is essential to sound quality, groove tracking, music retrieval, record care and stylus longevity. The Shure stylus Force Gauge let's you set and apply the vertical tracking force of your cartridge according to its recommended specification. The tracking force is measured with the tonearm in actual playing position.

Shure Stylus Force Gauge

Sure, those Chinese digital stylus pressure gauges are cheaper. But are they accurate? Especially since the calibration weight is so at variance with the tracking spec of your high quality cartridge? I'm a mechanical engineer and I understand exactly how this works. It's similar to my DIY from 1971. But more flexible. It has the Shure name on it. Nothing confusing about the instructions, either. And LPTunes has the best price I could find. Sold!

Goldring 1012GX cartridge

Replaced my 20+ yrs old Goldring phono cartridge w the same model and I can hear a vast improvement in overall sound quality from the new phono cartridge.
I am very happy with my purchase.!

Carbon Fidelity is a bargain!

I’m not even going into details about how much money (thousands) I’ve spent on different phono cartridges with exotic stylus. Comparatively, the Carbon Fidelity CFN3600LE Stylus is an incredible bargain. Tracks very well, low surface noise, zero IGD and best of all sounds terrific. You really can’t go wrong!

LP Tunes D625VL Upgrade Stylus for Pickering D625

Excellent sound quality

Life changing

I wish I was being dramatic
I didn’t want to pay for a new record player for my Billie Ellis vinyls
But I can listen to the songs clear as day now with this!! Okay, it skips sometimes as you would expect
But cheaper than getting a couple hundred dollar record player

Very nice upgrade.

I've had this for over 6 months, and I can report that it has much better bass, and treble than the original. Everything is very clean and detailed sounding. A few notable examples. I recently ordered Eva Cassidy Live Blues Alley 25th anniversary, 180gram, 45RPM. The soundstage is absolutely amazing. It is on the same level, if not surpasses MoFi Eric Clapton Unplugged SACD. My sister gifted me the soundtrack to Sinners on 180gram vinyl. I actually heard the soundtrack before I saw the movie. I didn't know vinyl could support so much bass. My room becomes fully pressurized with that soundtrack, backed by a SVS SB3000. Last would be Miles Davis Kind of Blue. I have this on 200gram 33/3RPM and MoFi SACD. I can hear tape hiss on both, and both sound very much the same. SACD wins on floor noise, but really not by much. My vinyl copy is also crazy clean sounding, but sonically sounding, they sound so close.
