Artisanal Japanese manufacturing.
JICO, acronym for Nippon Precision Jewel Industry Co. LTD, is a Japanese manufacturer well known among aficionados of high-quality cartridges and diamonds for turntables, both audiophiles and DJs alike. This family business based in the Hamasaka region of the Land of the Rising Sun, with origins dating back to 1873, began its history by manufacturing sewing needles, a precision activity that already foreshadowed its future! Producing diamonds and cantilevers since 1966 that have made its reputation, the brand has continuously innovated while preserving traditional manufacturing techniques. With the Whitelabel, JICO offers you its version of an undisputed icon of DJ booths in the world’s greatest clubs, scrupulously respecting the characteristics of the original model.
The resurrection of an icon.
The Whitelabel is probably one of the best-known cartridges developed by Shure, thanks to its exceptional audio qualities of course, but also because of its inimitable style. A true reference for audiophiles and DJs worldwide, the Whitelabel features a high output level, solid bass, and well-detailed mids and highs. The Whitelabel stylus developed by JICO provides you with these same legendary characteristics, thanks to an S-Type tubular aluminum alloy cantilever, precisely crafted to closely match the original Shure cantilevers, while offering an optimal 7° tracking angle.
Designed to exceed your expectations.
To surpass the quality level expected by users of the original Whitelabel, JICO favored the use of a full spherical diamond (known as "nude") for this stylus, whose tip is cut from a single piece of diamond. More costly and higher quality than glued tips, this nude diamond is lighter and offers much better groove tracking of your vinyl, as well as more efficient transmission of vibrations for a much richer sound.
The JICO WhiteLabel represents the highest quality solution to replace the stylus of your original Shure Whitelabel cartridge, maintaining the same audio qualities that made it successful.
