It's not been advertised/talked about over here that much, pretty sure you'll be fine! -

Replacing stylus help?
McCandless replied to McCandless's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
I'll check it out tonight and see if I can see anything before buying the cleaning solution. Appreciate your help, I'm getting fustrated how it's not sounding as good as it used to! -
Replacing stylus help?
McCandless replied to McCandless's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
Many thanks. You may be right about it just needing a clean, I kind of assumed since it's not been changed since the 80's (granted not played much) it was maybe time for a new one. I'll see if i can buy a stylus cleaning kit and hope it makes the difference first. Is there anything I should be looking for to see if the needle is damaged? If I can get away with not replacing it obviously that would be a bonus as I'm looking to get a new decent one in the future. Cheers for your help. -
I'm new to all this and currently have a hand-me-down from my Dad which is a Dual CS 505-3. Sounded great for a while but recently started to sound more muffled and quite 'heavy base' on records I know were fine before. I'm assuming this is the needle that needs replacing? However budget wise it's limiting me and I can't really afford to get it wrong! Does anyone know a low budget stylus that would work for the Dual CS 505-3? The current one is a Ortofon DN 165E. I've seen the OM10 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ORIGINAL-Ortofon-Nadel-10-fur-OMB-OM-Super-uva-NEU-/260304084116?pt=Plattenspielerzubeh%C3%B6r&hash=item3c9b551c94) which looks to be within my budget however would this just be a simple swap and replace or would I need a new cartrdige too? Also seen this http://www.gettheneedle.co.uk/stylus/brands-d/dual/dual-cs505-3-stylus-needle.html but I'm assuming I should avoid it as it seems very cheap. Any help anyone could give me would be much appreciated, I've searched around and struggling to get a definite answer!

For any UK people, the Banquet pre order has just gone on sale (exclusive Red/Blue swirl variant) for £14.99. http://www.banquetrecords.com/aaronwest Silver Bullet Merch (Hopeless) also have the clear with grey haze for £15 http://silverbulletmerch.com/collections/hopeless/products/aaron-west-and-the-roaring-twenties-we-dont-have-each-other-pre-order-lp -
Same with artists for me (but I may be doing something wrong). When I search City and colour it brings up every thread with the word 'and' in. Not ideal!

FYS have been on a steady decline for me with every record . Love Pure Noise variants and records though. -

The guy at banquett didn't tell me. Considering their prices are usually pretty expensive it usually works out the same price to get it imported! -
Sometimes they do but in the past I've bought stuff from Amazon expecting standard black and ending up with a fancy variant. Can't give you a definite answer mate.

But it is Amazon which is pretty trustworty, they wont' put the picture until a lot nearer the time usually. SRC are also doing it (I'd go with amazon though if it was me) http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Four-Year-Strong-%252d-Rise-or-Die-Trying-LP.html I managed to just snag the white variant last week but was after the splatter one.
