Warren,
This stylus' shank is TAPERED. It slips in easily. Watch the 'front' of it... The rake (angle of attack relative to the record) must be toward the FRONT of the cartidge. If it doesn't seem to want to go in, find out why. Don't force it! If it seems to strike something hard, there is something in the socket. When they are right, these things sound GOOD!
