Picked up a NOS Duotone1237D empire stylus. Said it is for an Empire 250E, but the stylus is marked for an Empire 150, which is a .6 spherical tip. Picked up a 150 cart body off the bay. Hooked it up and very surprised how good it sounded. Vocals are very distinct. Bass is good, The high end, while not the last word, was good, not sibilant. I have a LTD 400 cart with a generic 0.3 x0.7 elliptical, but sounds dark to me. Considering the 150-250 body are identical to Azden carts, I found an original Azden YM-10 VE (Vital Eliptical) stylus at Pickupnaalden.com and got it coming to see if it would be better. But very happy with the 150 stylus.
