Hey Everyone,
Finially busted the needles on my 680's that came with my decks (STR8-150's) and as a result, I need to buy new needles. However, I have been lookin at the integrated cart's for a while now and I am thinking they might be a good deal. My question is can you use standard integrated cartriges (like a trackmaster 2 or concorde dj) with a straight arm deck? The reason I am asking is because it looks right now like my cartriges are slightly twisted compaired to the tone arm (the screws are inline with the marks, so I am assuming thats right).
Thanks |

yes and no, you can use standard spherical styli fine but you shouldn't use elipical styli. Another thing, it's also bad to angle your cartridge like the way stanton does, in this article you'll see why:

Thanks,
I picked up a set of trackmaster 2SK's today, and they seem to work very well. |
