Im hoping someone can help me out here. Ive had my turntables for about 5 months, bought them second hand.
Not sure of when to change the needles.
How do you know when its time for new ones?

there is a really good websites about needles and stuff just search the forum

but i read that basically if you see that the needle is picking up a lot of dirt, which means the needles is worn out and its really sharp, it is time to change the needles.
