Neither. Get Shure M44-7's
this is the correct answer. if you have money Ortofon Q-bert's are legit as well. i use 447's because i go through them pretty quickly and it's only $25 to replace the stylus.Quote:

If you can afford the M44-7's, get them. but if you can't, go for the Stanton 500's.
I have both, and I honestly don't have a preference.

every scratch dj in the world swears by the m44.7. I own two Stanton 505 v.3 cartridges. they sound good and track really well. I had a pair of m447 cartridges and I think they hug the record a bit better. the 505 v.3's would be perfect for traktor but the m447 is a better scratch needle. its only $25 to replace the stylus on a 505 v.3. do you have a pair of shells for the cartridges because they are expensive?
the tracking on the stanton 520v3 are stupid heavy where as the m44g's are less than half and believe it or not, it acctually says this on the shure web site that the m44g and m447 cartridges are exactly the same. the difference is the stylus.Quote:

i just dont know what to do, prob get the shures and put the 447 styli on em
the 505 v.3 are from 2g to 5g tracking force. mine are set at 4 g. you can get a pare of 520 v.3 cartridges for $60 at tom lee. they don't come with the shells though. the store is online you can order them.Quote:
