The |
Model VN 15E Stylus (stylus grip |
color - black) |
has |
a Bi-Radial Elliptical diamond t i p and is |
used in the V-15 |
||
Type |
11 Stereo Dynetic Cartridge. The |
major feature |
o f |
the VNI5E is its superior TRACKABILITY. Because of it, all records will sound better and, in fact, you will hear some recordings tracked for the first time without distortion. The V-15 Type I1 Cartridge with VNI5E Stylus has the following SPECIFICATIONS-
Trackability at stylus force of 3/4 gram (in Shure-SME Arm]:
400 Hz(cps) - 18 cm/sec
1,000 Hz(cps) - 26 cm/sec
5,000 Hz(cps) -26 cm/sec
10,000 Hz(cps) - 18 cm/sec
Frequency Response: 20 t o 25,000 Hz |
|
Output Voltage: 3.5 mv per channel a t 1,000 Hz at |
|
5 |
cm/sec |
Channel Balance: |
Output from each channel within 2 d b |
Channel Separation: Over 25 |
d b at 1,000 Hz |
|
|
||||
|
|
Over 17 d b from 500 to |
10,000 Hz |
||||
Tracking Force: 3/4 to 1% grams |

The V N I5E Bi-Radial |
Elliptical Stylus is constructed with |
||||||
a broad |
frontal |
plane |
radius |
of |
18 microns |
(.0007 |
inch), |
while the |
side |
contact |
radii |
are |
5 microns |
(.0002 |
inch), |
and the t i p is 25 microns (.001 inch) wide between record contact points.
NOTE: The Shure Bi-Radial Elliptical Stylus produces several advantages:
I. It drastically |
reduces tracing distortion |
because |
the |
||||||
elliptical shape more closely follows |
the |
groove |
|||||||
made by the wedge-shaped cutting |
stylus. |
The |
|||||||
points o f tangency remain |
parallel |
t o |
the |
record |
|||||
groove t o a |
markedly |
greater extent |
than those |
of |
|||||
the |
ordinary spherical/conical |
stylus. |
|
|
|
|
|||
2. It |
is |
possible |
t o play |
all |
monophonic |
LP |
records |
||
with perfectionist reproduction quality, as well as |
|||||||||
stereo |
records, due t o |
the |
larger distance |
between |
|||||
the |
points o f |
contact |
of the stylus |
of |
25 |
microns |
|||
(.0010 |
inch). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
r,cc\&t.
3. "Bottoming" in the record groove is eliminated along
with its disturbing crackling noise |
o f |
grit |
and static |
|||||
dust that is normally in the bottom o f the record |
||||||||
groove. This is accomplished due |
t o |
the |
configura- |
|||||
tion o f |
this stylus. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The stylus |
assembly, |
when installed |
in |
the cartridge, |
||||
is practically |
immune |
t o damage |
during |
normal usage. |
||||
However, |
care should |
be taken |
t o |
avoid |
bending |
o r |
||
distorting the stylus assembly when |
it |
is installed |
o r |
|||||
removed. |
