    I have a Techincs PL430 Turntable. It needs a new Stylus or a cartridge. I cannot find one. My question is, does anyone know of an alternative that will fit. Thank you in advance. Sarge.

    Pretty much any cartridge with a standard 1/2" fixing will work. The arm on that turntable is quite good, so you can fit anything from an AT95e at around £40 to anything you fancy.

    One of my favourite MM cartridges is the Goldring 1042, which currently sells for £365.

    Moving coil cartridges generally will prefer a higher mass arm, so I would stick with MMs.
