| We all know Techinics are the standard for decks, and Pioneer for cdjs, but is there an industry standard for needles? What needles are in the club that you spin at? |

Ortofon Nightclubs are pretty standard, as far as i've seen.
you see Stanton Trackmasters out there as well. i've never actually seen a pair of WhiteLabels in any club here.
for hip hop clubs, i'm guessing they'd go for Shure M44-7s, since they are the legendary scratch cart. |

I was just about to say the Nightclubs and the M44-7's also. From what I've come to understand, they are pretty much the de facto standard for dj and club use.
You could probably throw in the Trackmasters as well, but I didn't think they were as prominent anymore. |

| I have yet to play in a club yet but everyone tells me to bring your own needles. |

| Um yeah, the industry standard for needles is bring your own. I'd never want a house needle touching my wax. |

| from what I've seen, its been the Ortofon carts, but now I'm seeing more Whitelabels replacing Orto's. I know Space in Miami is using Whitelabels for there system for a while now. |
