    Pioneer pl-50 with Pickering v-15 cartridge

    I just got a pioneer pl-50 turntable with a Pickering v-15 cartridge with no stylus. What would be a good stylus for everyday listening? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

    "Volume" difference between amps with same preamp?

I also have, and was previously using, a vintage Pioneer SA-8100 in near mint condition and professionally serviced. I have the 8100 tuner as well - a lovely...
