It restores the cartridge’s intended tracking and playback characteristics when the original stylus is worn or damaged. This is a turntable component for vinyl playback, not a complete cartridge or a car-audio speaker product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for listeners and DJs using the Concorde Elite system, this stylus combines a nude elliptical diamond tip with a rigid aluminum-magnesium cantilever. Its elliptical profile is engineered to follow record-groove detail with precision. The result is detailed playback with strong output from a properly matched Concorde Elite cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stylus assembly uses a specially molded body with genuine gold plating. Beyond its distinctive finish, the assembly is designed to maintain the Elite cartridge’s mechanical setup and specified tracking geometry. The stylus itself weighs 1 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA nude elliptical diamond reduces moving mass compared with a bonded stylus design. This supports accurate groove tracing and helps the stylus retrieve high-frequency information specified for the Elite system. The Elite stylus is rated for 100 µm tracking ability at 315 Hz when set to its recommended tracking force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the STYLUS ELITE as the service replacement for an existing Ortofon Concorde Elite cartridge. Set the tonearm to the specified 3.0 g recommended tracking force, then confirm proper balance and alignment on the turntable. Its 8.5 mV output specification and electrical loading figures apply when the stylus is used with the compatible Concorde Elite cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConcorde Elite Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made as the dedicated replacement stylus for Concorde Elite cartridges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNude Elliptical Diamond:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tracks groove detail with a low-moving-mass diamond assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGold-Plated Stylus Body:\u003c\/strong\u003e Specially molded body finished with genuine gold plating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum-Magnesium Cantilever:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rigid lightweight cantilever transfers groove motion to the generator.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3.0 g Recommended Tracking Force:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides the specified operating point for the Elite stylus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Tracking Ability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rated to track 100 µm at 315 Hz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe STYLUS ELITE combines a real gold-plated molded stylus housing, nude elliptical diamond, and aluminum-magnesium cantilever.
