Conical Styli

The benefit of conical styli, even if the cartridge is "lean", is the ball surface of the stylus touches the groove of vinyl records precisely. Due to its stability, it has been used widely at radio stations.

Elliptical Styli

To reduce the tracking distortion of a conical stylus, the elliptical stylus is made with a smaller effective radius to overcome these two conditions and provide more detailed audio content.

Line Contact Styli

Having a greater tracking ability than an elliptical stylus, the line contact styli will access deeper areas of the vinyl record groove. This enables the stylus to fully reproduce all content of the vinyl record with reduced stylus and groove wear.
