“When it comes to DJing, specifically Scratching and Beat Juggling, a smooth stylus is EVERYTHING!
Speaking of everything, I’ve tested a plethora of needles for the last 30 plus years at home, house parties, clubs, DJ battles, and on tour.
So I know what to look for in a dependable stylus. JICO’s new J44 is a Turntablist’s dream.
The way it performs on my turntables is second to none. After a few minutes of practicing with the J44 it was easy to notice the precision with which the needle tracked the vinyl as I scratched the record back and forth or rewound.
What’s more, it didn’t wear the grooves on the records I was using like other needles I’ve used in the past.
From a sonic perspective, the needle projected sound from my vinyl collection in the highest fidelity.
So you won’t have to worry about issues with distortion.
I recommend the J44 to anyone who takes pride in DJing with vinyl or DVS.”
