This elliptical bonded stylus makes it easy to upgrade the sound quality of any turntable equipped with an ATN3600L or ATN3600LC conical stylus, such as the turntables in our popular AT-LP60X series. Modeled after the venerable ATN3600L, which has sold by the millions and been trusted by countless music lovers for more than 60 years, the ATN3600LE features a 0.3 x 0.7 elliptical stylus for enhanced sound quality while remaining reliable and easy to use.Stylus Shape: EllipticalStylus Dimension: 0.3 x 0.7 milStylus Life: Approx. 300 hoursCompatible TurntablesAudio-Technica turntables: AT-LP60X series, AT-LP60 series, AT-LP2D series, AT-PL300 series, AT-SB727, AT-SB2022, AT-LPGO-BT, AT-PL50.Other brands: Consult the turntables user manual or contact the manufacturer. Audio-Technica has been perfecting the art of transducer technology since our first handcrafted phono cartridge in 1962ATN3600LC vs. ATN3600LE: Whats the difference?Owners of the AT-LP60/X (all variants), Soundburger AT-SB727 / AT-SB2022 and AT-PL300 (all variants) can now choose between two replacement styli the ATN3600LC and the ATN3600LE. The conical ATN3600L, which was previously the only option for these turntables, has been superseded by the visually redesigned ATN3600LC (conical profile), and the ATN3600LE (elliptical profile).The ATN3600LC has a conical diamond profile and is a direct replacement for its predecessor. Users will not hear any difference in the sound quality they love when installing this new stylus. The ATN3600LE is a new option for this range and offers an elliptical diamond profile, which can provide an enhanced audio experience. So, what does an elliptical stylus offer?The information on a vinyl record is stored on the sides of the groove wall. A conical profile stylus will sit quite high in that groove and can be affected by micro-scratches on the surface of the record, which can add noise to playback. By comparison, an elliptical profile stylus is narrower and therefore can sit lower in the groove and access information that conical styli simply cant reach. The increased contact area with the groove wall results in a higher frequency response and it is also less affected by surface scratches, which means less noise. The combination of these two elements will enhance the listening experience and potentially reveal new sounds to the listener.FeaturesReplacement stylus for the Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge0.3 x 0.7 elliptical stylus provides an instant upgrade in sound quality for any turntable equipped with an ATN3600L or ATN3600LC conical stylusCompatible with these Audio-Technica turntables:* AT-LP60X series, AT-LP60 series, AT-LP2D series, AT-PL300 series, AT-SB727, AT-SB2022, AT-LPGO-BT, AT-PL50*The ATN3600LE is compatible with turntables from other brands, as well.
