    Pickering V15//950ee cartridge

    Hey AK! I recently acquired a Pickering "V15/950ee" stylus used but with a pretty good looking stylus. Turns out that after install, alignment, and adjustment, it sounds like garbage and won't track at all! Just skates around despite having 1.5g, 2g, even 3g, on the arm. Anti skate was adjusted...

    V15II help, on a AR XA

    Help my Shure V15II stylus just broke I don't know what to do... I bought an AR XA a few years ago with a v15improved that had a bent but still working original stylus.

    Real or Fake? Shure V15 V

    Saw this on eBay - I think it is missing stamps (on bottom of cartridge, stylus) that should be on a genuine Shure V15. What do you guys think? Real or Fake?

    A good day, and a bad day, Feb 1

    This morning, I was in the mood for Bossa Nova. I was searching eBay and Discogs to see what was available at a price I liked. I was disappointed to see many versions of vinyl that were up there, $50 plus. However I did find a few that were prices I liked. Only all from different sellers except...

    PL-550 with a V15 type IV?

    I've owned a PL-550 for several years now that came fitted with a Shure V15 type II cartridge. It's always sounded amazing, so when I looked into upgrading recently and came across a V15 type IV for a great price, I snatched it up, knowing that they have a great reputation. I have a new JIco SAS...

    ADC Cartridge Find

    As luck would have it, today I was walking down my street and someone had put a box with a mediocre looking 80's pioneer turntable in it. Unable to resist almost any free stereo gear, I hauled it home, thinking maybe I could give it to a friend or someone interested in starting out with vinyl...

    Is this stylus damaged? (V15 Type III )

    I'm pretty sure this stylus is damaged.. But I wanted to check as I've just got this and I have no idea, it came with a V15 Type III cartridge on a Pioneer headshell (PL-530 turntable).. The stylus end just protrudes a little bit but it looks like cut out, right? In any case which is a good non...
