How to Choose a DJ Phono Cartridge

Video Transcript

"Alright, I'm going to tell you about the kind of cartridges I use. And they are the M twenty five C. These are great. I would say mid, though even on the lower end cartridges, they work really well. They do wear out relatively quickly, but they're inexpensive. I've tried cheaper ones, and ones that cost let's say fifteen or twenty dollars each, and usually they're terrible off the bat, or they break really fast. These ones, the main reason they're very affordable, I usually pay twenty-nine or thirty dollars each, and they last me some months, and they sound great, and you can get way better ones. You can get ones that are specifically for scratching, specifically for mixing, specifically for recording. This is a good overall needle. Though I would suggest not it's as great for scratching, but it's really nice overall, and very affordable."
