NEW TURNTABLE NEEDLE FOR Stanton 681EE 681EEE STANTON 681 D6800EEE 4822-DEE

New needle for my old Stanton 681 EEE phone cartridge. Works like new (is new). Fast delivery, description of the item was accurate!

Seems like a good quality product for the price. Materials are quality, everything is straight and aligned. Sound is quite good. Actually seems quieter and better built than a much more expensive Shibata stylus I had gotten from LP Gear, although has a little less detail and shows sibilance if the track is particularly sibilant whereas some more expensive styli can tame the sibilance a little better. All in all, well worth it. I'd say it's about 85% of the performance of my other stylus that costs a few times the price, so good value/performance ratio.

The replacement needle mads a big difference for record playing quality.

It's a shame that the company making the after-market replacement stylus, brush, and magnet tube for this cartridge decided to make the "oval" version. The straight round version always did sound better. I wore mine out before I lost my draft deferment in 1971. When DENON talked to the DJ's in Japan about the design of their legendary DL-103 cartridge, every DJ said the same thing, "Ditch the elliptical stylus and make the stylus ROUND." That's the way Columbia Broadcasting made the DL-103, and it is still a legend to this day. And so is the Stanton 681A with the round needle.

Working great on my old,old turntable. Thanks

Replacement needle for 681EEE phono cartridge works well. Looks just like the original.

Great replacement for my 680 HP

Direct replacement for my Stanton cartridge, it made every vinyl (even new) sound horribly scratchy with unacceptable background noise, as if I was using a cheap stylus, or playing over-used vinyl. Went back to my original stylus which has over 500 hrs, but still sounds much better.
