About this deal

And we have tested them all on the same system in a bar with the owner of the place and even a customer once. Unanimously the DJ got the favor of us all. Requiring higher VTF, but manage to push on the VTF of the "standard" to 2.5g. and the lowest VTF @ 3g. on the "DJ" to meet on "evenly" VTF for whatever that's worth. I think I would skip the more expensive Shures like the M97 or M91 and buy one of these. They are typically half the price or at least far less. Throw a new eliptical needle in yours and enjoy the music! Skilled DJs demand specialized tools that can help them push their creativity to the edge – consistently testing the boundaries in the realm of performance.

N44 Stylus for Shure M44 5/7/G/C/E options overview. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the DaCapo Team of needle experts if you need assistance choosing.If those models are no longer produced, or erroneously marketed, then I will be one step closer to JICO N44-G DJ improved. Finally what I like least is the look (not really important) is the sound you are looking (well I think). My understanding is that the original line up was M44E, M44-5, M44-7 and M44C. They appeared about the time of the first V15 as they share the same body in different housings. The N44-1 and N44-3 styli added mono and 78rpm to these models. The M55E appeared when the original V15 was replaced by the V15II, as to all intents purposes they are the same and the M44-5 was superceded by the M44G. I'm guessing 'firm' stylus is for sound quality, 'flexible' for longevity with mixing and scratching.. 'flexible' meaning like the Shure stylus, they will eventually bend to one side? xD

i have just found a boxed spare N44-7. I have replaced them with ortofons now so don't need it any more if anyone is interested let me know. In fact, the N44-7 taient OE on 1200 Technics SL which are the origin of the standalone player upscale. I’m telling this story for two reasons; one, the sound of that 1200 still haunts me and like chasing the dragon for an addict, it’s the feel of that first system (aforementioned 1200, an original NAD 3020 and a pair of Klipsch Heresy II) that I still try to build on with every iteration of hi-fi I’ve curated throughout the in-between decade. The second is the fact that the Shure M44-7 was integral to shaping how music was heard not only for my generation, but Boomers as well. Finally, finally, if it be taken to show off something else, if that's the sound must go there with closed eyes (house techno trance all Hip Hop styles what ...)Together with an old-fashioned Idler drive - very dynamic, lively sound with substance and stable imaging. Correlates to mounting in a DUAL 1019 drive.

After years of struggling with Ortofon and Stanton of all kinds, here are my Technics SL-equipped cell 1200MkII Shure M 44-7 .... surprise and miracle! It is a wonder that cell!

Also I'm really sorry to hear you had skipping and issues with volume and EQ.. I think that this shouldn't be an issue if you turn your speakers down - ideally they shouldn't be aimed at the styli, and also you might want to consider taking the turntables out of the coffins and try to isolate them a bit. But agreed, we didn't have these troubles with N44G/N447 Shure... it's sad that no one can do what Shure did apparently. I preferred the N44-7 to the N44G, both original and improved. The M44 series is my go to for shellac records. A possible historical side note on the Shure M95 and V15 and perhaps others. Both have bad press in some circles; the following perhaps some illumination on why. The M44-7 seems to be a bit more "full" right at the very low frequencies, whereas the M44G seems to have a more predominant upper lows-lower mids.

A few years ago Shure distributor had withdrawn from the catalog, tol gnrale and scandal at the dealer said. Less information was able to be obtained about the Shure V15 IV. Overall, users tend to prefer the III and V over the IV, but this is obviously not universal. So if you are going to use for bedrooms or outside terraces, quite bars, I would suggest Kurogaki for some romantic night but maybe N-44G CLUB improved for techno-trip-hop/house music in somewhat dark night club.Do you happen to know whether cantilever modifications are required when switching between Shure and Jico?
