Shure Whitelabel?

Is this cartridge any good?
and does the package include needles ?

Yes I'm a noob :I

Personally, I think they're better than Ortofons and I would reccomend them except for the fact that the stylii on shure carts is extremely fragile and I always end up breaking it before it wears out.

All carts come with one or more needles but you will need to replace them eventually.

I use them and i like them.

I have them and I think they are very good.
The best think is that the sound quality is as good as Ortofons, but they dont wear your vinyls so much...

they are good except for the fact that mine are off balanced. I remember a thread where a bunch of TA's all reported similar prolbems with their white labels as well.

I'd also like to add they they preform very well in scratch applications. Just wish the stylii wasn't so damn fragile.

a lot of carts have the same problem, it isn't just whitelabels.

just use the balance knob on the mixer to fix

unfortunately my current mixer and my future mixer (nuo 5) both don't have balance knobs.

I think their absolute garbage. I bought a pair thinking they would be able to handle daily practice sessions, but that wasn't possible. I think they're way too fragile. They just look nice. I say go with the Nightclub's. Been using them for almost 6 mths now, practically every other day and they are amazing.
