    cartridges for turntables??

    just had a stylus bust on my decks i hadn't touched them for weeks and thought i'd have a quick spin, balls. does anyone know whats the best cart to upgrade to (without spending silly money, maybe £25-30 each) for hip hop, mostly mixing with the odd scratch thrown in for good measure??

    cheers.

    hmmm, my mate used to have them and swore by them held pretty well even during manic scrathes, i'm thinking i might go all the way and get M44's, i quite like the look of the stanton 550 too, i just can't decide lol.
