get stanton 500AL carts. they are good all rounders. Cheap, Relativly long life. good for scratching, good for mixing, goods for listening, but not the best at any of these things. there are cheaper and there are better, but its a kinda jack of all trades cart. the freq response goes upto 17000Hz, which is a little low for up-your arse HI-FI 100% quality audiophile, but you wont notice that in normal use. and you prob would spend a few grand getting expensive gear instead. also you can get needles just about everywhere. lots of djs have them. its a bedroom djs friend. so basically: Stanton 500AL carts. get mkII ones they are slightly better than the originals, but i doubt you will find mk ones anywhere. oh and don't get second hand. its really not worth it. dont use more than 5g pressure or you could damage it. but they are fairly robust. |

Ortofon!!! I've got ortofon concorde scratch, and I think they're fucking great! I could drop the turntable from a five meter high place, and it wouldn't skip a single time! |

If you want to scratch get Sure M44G's the piklz use them so I guess that says enough. |

i bought some bottom of the line stanton carts and they have served me well for the past couple'a years. but i don't use my turntable excessively. but i don't feel bad about manhandling them cuz they was cheap. |

i need a new cartridge for my Numark; whenever i try to play anything it sounds very highrange and scruffy, but then again, i do have the thing hooked up to a guitar amp since i don't have speakers or a soundsystem. Hmmm... |
