mos def check out the Shure M44G
that's what i got and they are incredible. There isn't a noticeable difference between those and the concordes. PLUS, they have tracking at .75-1.5 grams, meaning don't worry about your vinyl gettin messed up. I've got technics and the tracking is at 1.0 gram and they don't skip. They are awesome!! I mean, if you are scratching, you definitely want more, but for mixing. WOW, i got mine for $50 a piece @ audiolines.com

I have Ortofon Concorde's..the sound quality is really good and worth every penny. I would suggest u goto a dj store near yer area (ie: guitar center) and try out a few and pick which one is the best value and quality.

I love my Ortofon Concorde's, plus when I need to replace the stylus I can always get the Nightclub E stylus. So basically I will have a Nightclub E at a much lower cost.

If you don't have the cash to get the Ortofon's right now, you should go with the Shure M44G. They are really good for mixing and don't wear out your vinyls.

I have Stanton Trackmasters right now. They're okay but I really want the Ortofon's. However, the trackmasters are at a reasonable price and are still pretty good.
