JICO SAS/B M97 cartridge

[Technicsalex]

Hello, I have a Shure M97 cartridge that came with the Shure N97EJ stylus.
I accidentally knocked the tonearm in the technics resulting in the N97EJ stylus breaking and needing to be replaced.

Does any one know if the JICO SAS/B stylus will fit this M97 cartridge?

I see conflicting information on similar threads. Some posts say all M97 cartridges are the same, others say the JICO SAS/B stylus will only work as a replacement for the N97XE (but my understanding is that stylus would be on an M97 cartridge as well).

If the JICO SAS/B will not work on the M97 cartridge, what would be the next best stylus for sound quality, or any other options that would be an upgrade from the N97EJ?

Thanks

just order the one for the m97he, not the xe so that the stylus grip is the same.

the sas works great in the original m97 body. ive used the pmount versions without the brush in a 97 body with great success. it maintains the neutral character of the cart.
