JICO N44G-DJ-SD N44G DJ - N44G DJ SD

Optimized for high downforce and equipped with an S-type cantilever similar to vintage Shure models, this synthetic-diamond-equipped stylus guarantees performance, tracking and robustness worthy of the brand.

The ideal replacement for the legendary Shure N44G.
The Shure N44G has earned its credentials with audiophiles and DJs worldwide, thanks to its smooth, musical response and exceptional stereo imaging. The N44G DJ SD stylus developed by JICO brings you these same legendary features, thanks to a Type S cantilever made of tubular aluminum alloy, precision-worked to approximate the original Shure cantilevers as closely as possible, while offering an optimal 7° angle of attack.

JICO has favored the use of an integral spherical ("naked") synthetic diamond for this stylus, whose tip is cut from a single piece of artificial diamond, with characteristics similar to natural diamonds. More costly and qualitative than glued tips, this integral diamond is lighter and offers much better tracking of your vinyl's groove, as well as more efficient transmission of oscillations for a much richer sound.

A high-quality synthetic diamond.
The SD range, for Synthetic Diamonds, uses synthetic diamonds instead of natural ones. Artificially created, these synthetic diamonds share the same optical and physical properties as a natural diamond, while offering highly consistent performance at a controlled cost. Thanks to a diamond tip with an adjusted diameter and a new cantilever damping system, synthetic diamonds are able to offer a pleasant, precise sound, more defined than a bonded natural diamond, while maintaining a lifespan in excess of 200 hours.

A stylus designed above all for DJs.
This N44G stylus offered by JICO, which reproduces sounds similar to authentic Shure styluses, benefits from improvements made by the brand to best meet the needs of DJs. The recommended contact force has been increased, from a maximum of 1.5g for the Shure model to 4.5g for this JICO model, to ensure better groove tracking for the most demanding turntablism sessions. The angle of attack has been upgraded, from 10° for the Shure diamond to 7° on this JICO version, for even more faithful playback quality. And to protect the diamond in all circumstances, this model benefits from a protective flap that folds down over the stylus to prevent any harmful rubbing.
