Playing fine presses with an unknown cart

Well i'm still researching and waiting to purchase my new TT. In the meantime I have purchased some expensive quality pressings. My old Technics has never really been maintained or upkept. Being new to the anolog scene, I am shall we say rather excited to play my new purchases. My question is; Can I damage the new vinyl with my old cart? Is there anything I could do to "revamp" the cart while I wait for my new TT? Last but not least, do I just wait out the few weeks for my new TT and preamp or will I be able to hear a big difference with my old set up since these are quality albums? Thanks, Brian

Waiting for the known is best.
You can also go to your local audio store and buy a $200 new cart/stylus and save it as a back up. I would not play your fine LPs too many times with the cheapy, but you know it's not damaged.
