Super Cheap Placeholder Cartridge


Hello Everyone! I'm currently saving for a high end cartridge, but.. the stylus fell out of my current cartridge (Grado Platinum 1.) I don't feel like sending it off to Grado to pay $250 for rebuilding, but I hate not being able to listen to my vinyl. Any recomendations on a $50-75 cartridge I can use while I save $$? (It's a VPI HW TT and a Lustre GST 801 Tonearm. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Scotty

If you can spend just a little more, the Ortofon Red at $99
is a killer cartridge.

The Shure M97xE is really good also and can be found for
around your budget.
