Technically the Concorde's are VERY VERY slightly better but the cost favours the Whitelabels.
I like Ortofon's better, use both see what you like better.

'use both' lol no chance, where would i posibly do this without having to buy them both? neway i think i mite go with the whitelabels heard lots of good things about them from other in this forum
Any DJ Shop in Sydney and Mlb (that I've been 2) have had dex as well as a set of each of these, and are happy to test them out in the shop. Go in say you're interested in buying a pair, then go buy them elsewhere...2 mins of ur time, and you're getting what you want.

Scott, did you get the OM's or Concorde's? and.. Spherical or Elyptical? One more question, how much/where? (if it's ok to ask!)
PS. listened to your promo disc - really good man, very fresh! I suppose it was recorded with the nightclubs? he he..

Hey Marsh!! I have the concordes nightclub E!! best needles i have ever used, yeah i did use them on that recording, how clean do they sound??! really good bass response (not flooded). I'm really glad u liked the disc too oh by the way, sorry, i paid $400 for a twin set ( two carts, 4 styli ) in a pretty case. hehe got them from Virgin on Chapel St because i had a voucher through my work for $200 so it made sense.

Nice one! Hey, I've heard that cartridge/headshell all-in-one designs can be problematic with one channel dropping out from time to time and requiring a little jiggle/tighten to get it working again. In fact I experienced this interesting little phenomenon with my housemates Stanton Trackmaster II RS's only a week or 2 ago. Have you ever experienced this with the concordes? (Please say no, please say no, coz I'd like to get some of those little fellaz) - $400 doesn't sound too bad either.. thanks scott
