Hope you find them soon, j_spot. You're right they don't come cheap but then again they don't have limbs to run either.

y are they not on your tables?

they arent on my tables cuz I blew the amp, and hence had no speakers..well I have speakers now, went to spin and ???? needles are missing. Im @ a loss. They werent fuckin cheap at all!

If I need new ones, then fuck, im out for another 2 months!

so your saying you take your carts off when your not spinning?

when I know I wont be spinning for a few weeks yeah

its been 3, nearly 4 weeks since ive mixed

that's shitty

we had my party speakers being run by this l;ittle tiny computer speaker ammp, and eventually the strain of running these big speakers was too much and it blew
it smelled like burnt plastic and wires

but the good thing is that i got my original amp fixed that was running the speakers

don't worry, they're coming... my voice has been shot for the past week due to a bad cold, but it's clearing up now

Well I have found my needles!WOOHOO! but..........

one of my tables is fucked. There is no right channel from it. I tried different mixer, changing stylus, changing the headshell, nothing worked.---Any other suggestions before I take it in?

most likely its the headshell....

try cleaning the connectors/RCA's

I tried changing the headshell..

might it be the connection in the tonearm?

Most probably, this is a common problem with Ortofon Concordes. Get a Q-tip, dab it in some isopropyl alcohol (aka IPA) and wipe it over the connectors on the back of the Ortofons and also on the connectors inside the tonearm. Try to shove the Q-tip in fairly hard, because the connectors in the tonearm are spring mounted - they could have got pushed in and got stuck, so try to force them out if this is the case.

considering I dont have concordes....????

congrats about finding your needles man..

just curious, where were they?

also, i am planning on getting some ortofon carts, cuz i hear they are the best for trance. this other guy is trying to sell me on some stantons..

should i go with the stantons, if only because they won't corrode or damage the connectors on my tonearms?

they were in my record case after all
they had fallen between 2 records, and I looked in front, on the sides and in back, but not between! Then I was going to pack up agian, and they wouldnt get close..and VOILA! they they were

Sweet. it would really suck to lose those babies.

Ah, didn't realise you had the OMs. Uh, in that case just make sure the wires from the headshell are connected properly to the pins on the back of the cartridge.

he doesn't have the OMs... its the nightclubs, but not the OM version

and he found his needles exactly where i told him to look

and as it turns out I tried the old lick it then stick it, and it worked

so now off to the drug store for some isopropanol alcohol...cleaning time!

Glad to know it wasn't a problem with the Techs.

I know how it feels, it can be frustrating trying to isolate the problem when you have a million things connected together.
