Crosley NP1 Replacement Needle

Bought this to replace the needle on my record player. Snaps on and off easily and has held up well.

Reading the negative reviews made me nervous about purchasing this to replace the needle on my Crosley 5-in-1, but I'm super pleased with the product! I watched a 30 second video from Crosley on replacing the needle and it couldn't have been easier! The old one popped right off and this one went right on with zero trouble. It looks plastic, but it has a good tip. The sound is honestly better now than with the old needle. Go ahead and buy this one!

I can listen to my music again!It is a family party and they have finally allowed me to be in charge of the music! Then younger cousin strikes, he sees an invention that he has never come across in his life before. As any good two year old would he must inspect the spinning disk. That is how my record player’s needle broke.Now as any good listener would I immediately looked up replacement needles for the player. But, the company does not make any specifically for my make. Next stop: Best Buy. They tell me that I could buy a new player here at their store, I declined the offer and looked again to the internet. After much research and many searches on amazon I found this product! My only doubt was that the product would not work because I have a Sylvania  Sylvania Turntable Record Player with USB Encoding, Black not a Crosley player. I decided with that price it was worth it. When the package showed up at my door I was delighted! My mood only improved when, after the struggle of taking the old needle off, I could play my records again.I now keep my cousin away from my record player and have no problems.

Opted for this since it is name-brand vs the more affordable options out there since I didn't want to risk ruining my records via a knock-off needle. Was very easy to swap out my broken Crosley needle with this one and it worked as anticipated. Yay for listening to my records again!

It might just be my player but the needle won't snap on. It still plays because the pressure pushes it up far enough to work but it would be nice if it fit correctly. Because it's not all the way down it usually skips over the first 10-15 seconds or so of the first song on each side.

Used with my new record player

I kinda hate this needle. It didn't *click* into place as it should so it skips across my records, especially any that are not 100% perfect (and we all know that those are prolly your best records, right?) The packaging seriously makes me think that this is not original manufacturer equipment.Serves me right for cheaping out on a purchase that will amortize itself to pennies per use even for a more expensive version.I have tried a number of DIY fixes but they don't work so I will have to buy another (obviously from another source)

in the description section of this item, the text states:"The NP1 replacement needle allows you to play 33 1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records and is compatible with all Crosley Reproduction Turntable models (except Stack-O-Matic Record Changers)."nope, it doesn't fit the CR-249 Keepsake Turntable record player. i bought this turntable as a birthday gift for my girlfriend and stupidly did not purchase replacement needles along with it. a day after i gave it to her, i was cleaning and accidentally dropped the record player. the needle broke. after calling around to local music stores, i found that the only place i could purchase a replacement was Amazon. when i received the needles, they clearly looked different than the original one and it was soon clear that it did not fit on the arm of the record player. severely dissapointed is an understatement, as my girlfriend now has to wait another 2 weeks for the correct needles to arrive. by the way, the replacement needle for the CR-249 Keepsake is the NP4.as far as the needle itself, it seemed to be a more deluxe version of the original and sturdier. the needle is a diamond stylus, so it is just a little tiny diamond-shaped pointy nub, as opposed to a long silver piece of metal. i wish it would have fit because it looked of higher quality than the NP4.

I bought this needle as a replacement for our Memorex 9290BMMO All-in-one turntable and it was a vast improvement over the needle that was originally shipped with the stereo. It was very easy to install and it sounds great.

good quality

Very prompt service, good price and nice to have a spare. It is great to listen to records again. Would recommend.

Wow. The improvement over stock on my Crosley Cruise was remarkable. Night and day. If you bought a Crosley this is necessary.

hopefully i will not have to use the zyon diamond replacement stylus needle for a few years yet. regarding delivery it arrived on time. it was well packaged. as i have not used it yet i am really struggling to find something to say about the zyon diamond replacement stylus needle for z660. i am happy with it so far.
