might seem like a dumb question, but as im not too clued up on TT's i'll ask anyway. I got an old crappy technics TT cheap (dont need a good one, cos i only have a handful of LP's - all rare so got it to transfer to CD) but the stylus is worn, crackling badly on all LP's, even brand new ones. Question is, do i have to buy the same needle as is on the TT, or are there other brands /models available that will fit?

Hi,
What Technics is it? is it a model slbd 20/22 or something similar to that name,very plasticy build? If so the stylus comes in its own housing,and you just pull/slide that housing off,you then just replace that housing (orange colour?)with the stylus,but to be brutally honest the deck is so bad that a new stylus still sounds rough,even though you have a few records you'll get far greater enjoyment from them with a S/H Rega planner2 or NAD ,project etc,the Technics will do you no favors really.
