If you have the money to throw down, get some Shure Whitelabels.

get yourself a pair of ortofon pro's or like djkoolaide said: whitelabels. Stay away from stanton carts..

I don't know how much experience you guys have w/ 520sk carts, but i honestly think they are the best budget cart out there. There very durable, sound ok, and fairly low on cue burn. I own a pair of both whitelabels and 520sk's, and for somebody just starting out or somebody that needs a durable cart for cheap than the 520's are the way to go.

yeah i have always found that they are good budget carts. obviously, if you have the cash available, the ortofon concordes or shure whitelabels ARE going to be much better, but that is bloody obvious when you look at the price difference.

might be worth you having a look at the shure m44-7 carts, or the ortofon OM DJs, they are priced inbetween the budget and the expensive carts.
