[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 230796, member: 34"] The different stylus profiles enable different contact areas in the groove. Some higher, some lower, for example. Scratches generally sit higher up at the top of the groove. So, different stylus profiles will get you different levels of noise (Snap, crackle, pop). Tonality, however, is more a consequence of the cartridge itself. Not altogether, though, because you may be able to get a different tonal balance with changes in VTA setting. [/QUOTE]
