Looking for advice for the fine folks of the forum. I am looking to upgrade the Sumiko Pearl on my Pro-Ject Carbon turntable. It's always been fine for me, but that's probably because I've never really compared it to anything else. My office vinyl listening setup is fairly modest. As follows: - Musical Fidelity V90-LPS Phono Stage (MM/MC) - Musical Fidelity V90-HPA Headphone Amp / DAC - Micca PB42x Powered Bookshelf Speakers - Philips Fidelio X2/27 Open-Ear headphones Predominantly, I listen to rock music (60's thru 2018) with some jazz, hip hop, techno, acoustic, classical, etc mixed in. Rock well over half the time though. With that particular turntable and other items in the setup, I'm curious what people might suggest for a cartridge upgrade. I've seen a few usual suspects continue to pop up specific to listening to rock music (Ortofon Blue / Bronze, Denon DL-110 among others) but wondering if there's a cartridge that can take advantage of that modest-budget setup above the best (keeping in mind that the budget for the catridge itself would probably also need to stay modest... ideally $400 or under would be the sweet spot so that probably rules out a few suggestions). Thanks!

I purchased a new Audio Technica 440mlb last December and was wondering when to replace and how to know it's time. I am sure it depends on use and I play a few records almost every day.

FOR SALE- Audio Technica AT150MLX cartridge/stylus: I just switched to the Ortofon 2M Bronze PnP kit, so I'm selling my old cart/stylus. I'd estimate there's about 30 or so hours of use on it. I left it mounted on the head shell I was using since I don't need that with the PnP kit and the packaging allows a head shell inside.Buyer would need to mount/align it to their tonearm of course. In excellent shape and sold AS IS. They go for $330-$350 new so I'm thinking $180 including shipping is a fair (firm) price. Wanted to offer it to this community prior to listing it on elsewhere. I'll wait a week from today before listing it on eBay. Shipping to US only please. Please feel free to ask any questions I didn't think to answer in the OP. More pics/other angles posted by request.

I am selling my Audio Technica ATXN5 Compass Stylus (aka 205-DET) which has seen below average use (purchased new 1 year ago). This stylus is an excellent HiFi upgrade to the stock stylus included on the Audio Technica AT-PL120. It snaps right into the PL120's stock cartridge (ATP-2) so no realignment is needed. It provides better sound quality and a lighter tracking force (1.00-1.75 grams). I am asking $40 ppd $35 ppd $28 ppd SOLD. More info can be found here: http://www.turntableneedles.com/ATXN5-Compass-for-Audio-Technica-AT-X5E-Cartridge--our-Needle-205-DET_p_933.html Please message me if you're interested. Thanks.
