Except for damage caused by careless operation, the use of excessive needle pressure, shoddy inferior records and severely shaking turntables will shorten the life of the needle tip.As the radius of curvature of the sharpened needle tip becomes larger, its ability to track high-frequency signals in the sound groove decreases.
