I've noticed lately that my turntbale has being sounding a bit flat and lifeless. However tonight some of the records have start jumping which are in good condition. Is this a likley indication that my stylus is warn? It is 3.5 years old and has had quite a lot of use especialy in the last year. I am just a bit annoyed as my mobile broke this week too costing me £50 to replace, if my stylus needs replacing thats another £30 down the drain.:( Idealy I would replace the cartridge as well but I am not sure I want to risk removing my old one and replacing one becasue the cables seem very flimsy, I don't want to accidentaly damage them.
