Needles

What would you all suggest for the best set of needles to use to spin trance?

Also, how do you tighten the tone arm on a 1200. It does not affect the play, but I can tell it is a little loose and can be moved slightly back and forth and was just wondering how to tighten it up a bit.

1. Wrong Forum
2. Depends on your budget. I personally like nightclubs and whitelabels. If they are too pricey look into the stanton budget needles.

Ortofon Concordes - any type. I haven't used them all but I have the Pro Silver - they rock and they are the lower end ones! Probably your Nightclub E are the best, but any of the Concorde range are extremely good.

i think the best DJ carts around at the moment are the shure whielabel's. if you have the money i would go with them.. low record wear, high output, great sound quality and excellent tracking, everything you want form a cart!

I think it only puts "Moved" in the forum it was moved from.
