i'd probably go for either some scratch needles if you do a lot of scratching otherwise some orfotons

Most Ortofons are pretty expensive. If you only use FS and not real vinyl anymore, I would just get some Shures (not the White Labels, one of the cheaper ones). I know my next needle purchase will not be more Ortofons, since I use FS I don't need to spend a lot to get good fidelity from the records themselves (as long as it reads the timecode I am good).
