Those two are essentially the same stylus but from slightly different time periods. Some people think that the PD07C sounds a little better but I think one would be very hard pressed to tell the difference. As for compliance, I don't have any specifications but since they are set to track correctly at roughly 4.5 grams force then it is safe to say that the compliance is LOW. Probably similar to something like a Shure SS35C which is rated at 5 compliance units.

Best regards.

Thank You for reply!
Which one is the earlyer one?
They both have 3-7gr force and the same output that is all what I know about. And You right, some says that the PD07 C has the better polished diamond...but the information is not trustworthy...

The PD07C should be the earlier.
