What cartridge/stylus do you prefer on your turntable? ![]() M44G!!! Not for scratching, just steady mixing. I find the M44G's bass response better than the Shure M447 which sounds flatter (but seems built for scratching). | |

Mine's a Shure, but I can't remember the model number. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

My tables came with the Stanton 680.v3. The only ones I have ever used so far. So I guess I prefer these till I have to buy new ones. ![]() ![]() | |

![]() ...Koetsu - Blue Lace Platinum Magnet Cartridge The Blue Onyx is an agate Onyx of blue, grey and white layers of fused quartz. Its beauty is sonically unique due to the scarceness of blue stones in nature. The Blue Lace batch was also specially selected because it is the hardest and most rigid among the onyx family, making it an exceptional cartridge housing due to its outstanding sonic qualities. Because of the limited supply of Koetsu's Blue Lace stock, they only issue two Blue Laces a year. A true audiophile statement. http://store.acousticsoun...Cartridges =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= $20,000.00 (chicken change) ![]() Music for adventurous listeners tA ![]() "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

They don't look like that though. I bought my Stanton turntables in 2001 and took into consideration that I should only get turntables in which I was able to afford to replace the needles when they wore out. I looked up the needles on the internet at the time and they were around $25 at that time. I still have the same needles though and haven't had to replace them yet. . . .

I think its this one:-
![]() Audio technica or something like that? I havn't got a clue really. My Dad use to school me and my siblings on hi-fi though, how all the compartments need to add up (i.e brilliant speakers will still sound like shit without a brilliant Cd player to play it on etc..) Never play my record player much (except when converting). | |
