Pfanstiehl Vinyl Record Player 793-D7M Diamond Needle Stylus, Replaced 793-D7

Turntable needles unfortunately aren't completely universal. I have a Numark PS-01 portable turntable. It is *not* the PS-01 "scratch" model, nor is it the one with USB capabilities, all of which confusingly seem to be labeled "PS-01". I looked all around for a new needle, but they wouldn't fit. Even ones that looked really similar or said that they were for "Numark" turntables wouldn't fit. After searching, buying and returning at a couple of stores, I decided to take the risk and get one on-line that looked like a fit. Luckily, this one did. It easily snapped into place. Sounds fine.If you're looking for a replacement needle, carefully check your current needle with close-up photos, especially photos showing the shape of the rear point end of the red plastic.

I bought this stylus for my victrola record player. The stylus I received had a red plastic stem where the needle is. The one in the photogragh has a metal stem. I was expecting what was in the photo but I got something else. I was trying to upgrade my stylus not downgrade it. I returned mine.

It sounds about the same as the original stylus that came with my record player. I am neutral on this product. The original stylus can be used with 78's and the manufacture says this stylus should not be used with 78's. So I will stick with the original. My hope was that this would sound better on 33 and 45 records. It does not.

This will fit the pt01 scratch. I replaced my stock needle with this. Apparently the picture shows a metal piece but the one I received was plastic, exactly the same as the stock one that came with the turntable. That aside, sounds slightly better because it's brand new.

I bought this needle as a replacement for my very-worn ruby tipped stylus on my Ion Air LP turntable. This stylus ended up being more heavy than my other one and needed to be adjusted through counterweighting my tonearm. Be aware if you plan on buying this and don’t have a counterweight on your turntable as you can potentially damage your records with the tracking force of this stylus!

This needle is great for the price. Arrived on time and in tact. Seriously improved my crappy record player. There was way too much treble and no bass with it's original needle. But when I replaced it with this one, it immediately sounded better. Totally worth the money. Check if it fits your turntable.

Good quality, nice sound

Amazing upgrade! This diamond tip stylus has a noticeably better sound and a must have addition to your Numark PT101 USB. The old one easily pops off and the new easily pops right into place.
