Is there a way to easily determine the amount of stylus wear on a DD reproducer?

The 'easy' way is to set the reproducer down on the inner 'dead wax' area of a disc. If, after a while, you notice scratches in that area, that indicates the stylus is worn and should be replaced.
You can also check the stylus visually, using a high power jewelers' loupe and good lighting. Any wear should show up as a flat spot on the stylus tip: a good stylus will have a smooth, rounded tip.
