I am getting a technics 1200 but the seller wants to keep the cartridge for another table.  What all do I need to know about cartridges on turntables as this is my first one.  Do i just buy a cartridge (and it comes with a needle) and install it/ balance?

 

Is there anything else i will need?

 

Sound quality is the most important feature. I am a little bit of a basshead.  Gonna be listening to mostly electronic music and rock. 

I may mix down the road with this table so a cartridge that can take a little abuse would be nice.

 

How about a shure m44g?
