The stylus is a consumable product. Except for damage caused by improper handling, excessive tracking force, low-quality records, or unstable turntables, which may shorten the lifespan of the needle tip, normal wear will occur over time. As the radius of curvature of the needle tip increases with use, its ability to track high-frequency signals in the groove diminishes. When audio details decrease, treble response deteriorates and sound becomes duller, indicating it may be time for replacement. The AT3600L is a high-quality stylus backed by over 50 years of production experience, with consistent manufacturing standards. As an entry-level model, it maintains quality materials. The stylus cantilever is made of high-quality material, enhancing durability and helping preserve sound performance. Due to different production batches, there may be slight variations in appearance, color, or printed text. These differences do not affect functionality.
