Phono Cartridges/Styli
Phono cartridges are used in a turntable to transform mechanical energy in
to electrical energy. A good Phono
Cartridges/Styli is the basic element to good sound.
The stylus is the needle that sits in the cartridge and actually picks up the information form a records grooves and transmits it to the cartridge. These needles will wear down over time, more quickly if you play records in poor condition or have an improperly set up turntable. When the needle tip starts to look flat instead of pointy and you hear a dramatic decrease in sound quality, it is time to replace the stylus.
