I'm wondering what cartridge I should buy for a Technics SL1900 turntable. It will primarily be used to rip vinyl to my computer to make backup CDs. Although I'm looking for "archive" quality my equipment will not be reference quality, either for recording or playback. Can something like a Grado Sliver fit on the SL 1900 tonearm? Is that overkill? Any help is appreciated or recommendations are appreciated.

The AKG K270s are the classic, big huge studio headphones. There is little doubt if you see someone in these cans, they're tracking tasty licks on a new album. Despite their size, they do tend...

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

Hi Todd,
I understand how it goes. I wasn't really in a hurry to get a cartridge but as usually happens a deal came up that I thought was pretty good.
I'll have to report back on how things work out.
