cartridge
Submitted on March 28th, 2009 by markch2What should i look at paying for a new cartridge. I just picked up this turntable there is a cartridge in it but no needle in it
cartridge
Submitted on April 7th, 2009 by BeninskiWhat you pay for a new cartridge is dependent on many things as prices range from anywhere between $20 and $1,000 and up. The price you pay can depend on a great many factors. Is this a quality Turntable? Is your system one of high or lower quality. Are you an audiophile or an audio enthusiast? Perhaps you are just starting out with analogue sound. What is the condition of your record collection?
There are many brands and types of cartriges to consider. The types of needles (or styli) included with cartidges vary immensely in quality. You may hear the words conical, bi-radial, eliptical, hyper eliptical and shibata when describing stylus tips. At minimum, I would recommend an eliptical tip as they trace the record groove to a high degree of accuracy with minimal wear on the record. The tracking force should be no more than 2 grams. for such a cartridge, you should expect to pay $50 and up. However if stylus type is not a major concern to you, you can pick up a budget Audio technica cartidge with
conical tip for around $20.
Stylus
Submitted on March 28th, 2009 by JaSIf it's still got the original cartridge in it just do a google search for 'Technics EPC-270C stylus' and several suppliers will show up
