Hi Randy. It depends on how dexterous you are. The last time I replaced a stylus was way back in the late 70's/early 80's when I had a record deck. The cheep models I would think would be fiddly but the higher end decks are quite easy, or were. I always used either gold ring or Shure cartridges and replacing the stylus was simple as the stylus was held in a housing with a contact pin at the rear which slipped into the relevant hole on the front edge of the cartridge, it was as simple as that. As I said, it has been a long time since I had a record deck, the last two were a rotel and finally a JVC QL5. If cartridges and styli are of the same design and you are quite good with your fingers then you shouldn't have a problem but you may need sighted help for the first time. Walter.
