JICO SAS/B Stylus VN45HE for SHURE V15 Type Ⅳ Cartridge Boron Cantilever Japan
Description
About the Product
This product (192-VN45HE SAS/B) is not an original manufacturer needle, but a replacement stylus manufactured to SAS specifications based on original specs.
Please note: This JICO original model uses boron for the cantilever. It differs from the SAS/S and SAS/R models.
This replacement stylus features a SAS tip and a Boron cantilever.
Our proprietary SAS (Super Analog Stylus) series achieves line contact with the record groove through its specialized tip shape. This unique design achieves two opposing goals simultaneously: exceptional groove tracking and reduced friction between the stylus tip and record surface.
・Superior Sound: Excellent reproduction of both high and low frequencies.
・Extended Lifespan: Offers a long service life of approximately 500 hours.
This is JICO's premium, high-grade, long-lasting stylus model.

Precautions for Use
Stylus Lifespan:
The general lifespan mentioned above (~500 hours) is for reference only. Actual performance life may vary. The stylus may deteriorate or fail sooner due to usage conditions—such as tracking force set outside the recommended range, dusty environments—or natural aging.
Tracking Force Requirement:
Always operate the SAS stylus at the recommended tracking force: 1.25g (±0.25g).
Using a tracking force heavier than specified may damage the stylus tip or ruin your record grooves.
