I need a replacement stylus for an Ortofon OM5e cartridge.

Where can I it get in Nairobi?

My father had a simple solution for worn out styluses - put a 5 cent coin on it.....

@livie;

I'm too old for that now,but I did it some 20 or so years ago.

The stylus I want if for my home turn-table.

(BTW; before getting into DJ-ing,I was a truck driver on the Nairobi - Mombasa route with a 20-tonne truck)

@G.G; that wouldn't work for an audiophile like me! There is a reason they make them with elliptical diamond tips....

@livie;

Ati ofload vinyls? Are you joking? No chance! No chance! No chance! No chance! No chance! No chance!

I have about 130 pieces in mint condition. The genre is a bit out of the ordinary,though...my signature should give you a hint....

I was thinking of starting a vinyl club; would you join?

@Mukiha

Try the shop called Chatur on River Rd. I remeber getting an old Sansui Styllus there some years back after months of searching. Just ensure you carry a sample.

Count me in the Vynyl Club
