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

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.
