Technics 1200. Do not get anything else. Some companies will say there's are just as good and some of them have as much tourque, and feel similar. But if you master yr skills on some high-end numark thing, imagine your frustration when everywhere you go all you see are 1200s.

maybe you can get a set used for 500 bucks on craigslist if lucky. They're built like tanks so they maintain their price, used usually doesn't go below 300 ea, but often on craigslist there's people who thought they were gonna be djs selling them off. One guy in the WB right now has one for 250

of 2 for 450:

Shure

four years pass...

I think I'm going to get a new set of Shure cartridges
I'm looking at these and realizing that it might be worth the extra 17 (X 2) dollars to step up to something better, namely the M44-7, especially if it's going to have a significantly longer life than a more entry level cartridge.

I really don't know anything about needles, I'm changing them now because I got a pair that came with used turntables and I'm afraid they're worn out (there's skipping here and there, sometimes I have to raise the counterweight, etc.), but ultimately I have no idea. I'm not playing at clubs or on a HiFi system, so I'm not sure (not shure?) what difference it ultimately makes for someone like myself.
