FAQs
Is this stylus compatible with cartridges other than the Reloop Concorde Green?
No, the Reloop Stylus Green is specifically designed as a direct replacement for the Reloop Concorde Green cartridge only.
What type of stylus tip does the Reloop Stylus Green have?
It features a spherical stylus tip, which is known for its durability and excellent performance in scratching and DVS applications.
How often should I replace the stylus?
Stylus lifespan varies based on usage. For professional DJs using it frequently for scratching and DVS, replacement every 6-12 months is recommended, or sooner if you notice sound degradation or mistracking.
How do I clean the stylus?
Use a specialized stylus brush. Gently brush the stylus from the rear to the front. Never brush side-to-side or front-to-back, and avoid touching the needle with your fingers.
Can I use this for general music listening?
While it can be used for general listening, its design is optimized for the demands of DJing, including scratching and DVS. For critical hi-fi listening, a stylus with an elliptical or advanced profile might offer more detail.
What is the main advantage of a spherical stylus tip?
Spherical stylus tips offer superior durability and are less prone to skipping during aggressive playback techniques like scratching and back-cueing, making them ideal for professional DJ use.
Troubleshooting
Skipping or mistracking
Ensure the stylus is correctly and securely seated in the cartridge. Check that the turntable's anti-skate and tracking force are set correctly according to the cartridge manufacturer's recommendations. Clean the stylus tip.
Distorted or muffled sound
Verify that the stylus is clean. A worn or dirty stylus can cause sound degradation. Ensure the stylus is fully inserted into the cartridge.
Stylus seems loose
Gently but firmly re-seat the stylus into the cartridge. If it continues to feel loose, inspect for any damage to the stylus housing or cartridge connection point.
