hello!
I have a pioneer PL-520 turntable (pictured) and it’s time for a new needle. This unit gets quite a bit of use and I am wondering what the group would recommend for a good sounding, and lasting needle At a reasonable price? At the moment it is paired with a HK-330 and Sansui SP-2500 speakers if that matters. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I found my favorite sound to come off my Pioneer PL-50 came from the Ortofon 2M Red I purchased about a year ago. I cheaped out on the stylus' before that, and it was like night, and day on it. It will cost a bit, but the sound is well worth it.

Hope this help ya!
 
I have an at100e on my pl-520 and it just sings. The highs are clear and the overall sound is full with a great soundstage. Can't recommend it enough .
