| 837859 | 2009-12-09 21:19:00 | I have a Shure M97XE Mag. Cartridge in my Technics Turntable. I think the cartridge cost about $50 and the stylus (needle) $100. :) |

| 837860 | 2009-12-09 22:12:00 | Well, lucky old you! :drool From a memory that is becoming less reliable every day, I could not replace the stylus separate from the cartridge - mine came as an integrated unit. However, I may be wrong - and I can't recall the make of cartridge (it was a Kenwood deck) so that I can check. It went the way of all tiring things - TradeMe - last year, having not been used for some years. One dead and one retiring cassette deck with a replacement crystal ferrite head went in the same package... Now one only needs to worry about laser lenses... :crying |

| 837861 | 2009-12-09 22:20:00 | Well, there you go, wrong again. I have tracked things through and find the turntable had a Ortofon FF15XE MK2 Cartridge and it appears as though you can swap stylii. :blush: | John H (8) | ||
| 837862 | 2009-12-10 04:44:00 | Well, here's a coincidence, a posting on a 78rpm forum today: "Vinyl Records and Turntables Are Gaining Sales " "And with the curious resurgence of vinyl, a parallel revival has emerged: The turntable, once thought to have taken up obsolescence with reel-to-reel and eight-track tape players, has been reborn." www.nytimes.com |

| 837864 | 2009-12-12 19:26:00 | Once the secrets revealed by Spike Milligan in "The Running, Jumping and Standing Still Film" are unleashed, bakelite records will take over the world. Vinyl will go back to being the base ingredient of "McDonalds Washable Micro burgers" No, not Bakelite, too brittle, but since vinyl seems to be making a comeback, then its great 1930s competitor would be Durium... http://hitoftheweek.blogspot.com/ |

| 837866 | 2009-12-12 19:49:00 | Bakelite would be perfect for Guinness aspirants. Durium is a known health hazard to those with Super Powers. (There is already a world-wide shortage of Metlas.) |
