Shure M44-7 replacement stylus

[SherlockOhms]

I’ve got M44-7s on the Technics 1210s in the loft, which I DJ on. They desperately need new styluses, but Shure discontinued them in May this year.

Apparently the JICO Lumino (or better the Lumino improved) are almost a like for like replacement OEM part, but I can’t fond them in the UK. Anyone know of anywhere I could buy them?

You'd have to buy these from Jico in Japan.

What about a Tonar? It's a German made Shure equivalent.

They much cop? I’m going on the Mojaxx review of the JICO. Don’t know if Tonar are any good, as I’ve never heard of them as a brand before

Tonar has been around forever. They actually manufacture styli for other brands. This is comparable to the Shure for much less money than the Jico, and the link I posted is a reputable dealer in the U.K.
