Well, I bought a n400 stylus for my Stanton 400v3, 20 bucks shipped, and it sounds better than the 15+ yr old one that was in there, go figure. Much louder too. Anyway, I put the new needle in and the right side wasn't there, nothing. I then removed the headshell, checked the connections, seemed fine by looking and moving, then gave the cart a couple of thumbs, reinstalled the shell and viola, sound out of the right side. What's up with that and should I be buying a replacement cart? I like the 400 Stanton but seeing they are oop, out of production, I'll have to make a switch, unless I can find a NOS one. I mainly buy goodwill, half price books reduced vinyl so not really looking for anything audiophile grade. I will eventually get another headshell set up for the records that I buy that are pristine and maybe collectible. Thanks
