2M Black stylus replacement?

[Jimbo]

I have used my 2M Black for around 1750 hours now and was thinking of replacing it before it deteriorates.

Can anyone let me know how long stylus generally last before showing significant wear and potential damage to vinyl?

There's way too many factors to consider but anywhere from 500 to 3000+ hours.

T 3000+ hours.

And the rest.

Just out of interest does anyone know if the 2M blue shares the same cartridge body as the black?

2M red , silver & blue same body , Bronze & Black different body

Used ortofons myself for 35years & they last ages
mind you my records are spotless which helps as a RCM can double stylus lifespan
