Pioneer PL-A25 Headshell and Cartridge Recommendations

[mgsilver03]

I have a Pioneer PL-A25 turntable that has the straight tone arm. I don't have the headshell, cartridge, or stylus for this unit. Does anyone have any suggestions for me to get the headshell, cartridge and stylus?

Thanks in advance...

eBay often has the original Pioneer headshell for this model (A common early 1970's design used in many Pioneer models). It accepts SME type headshells which are common. Overhang is 49 mm. The Audio-Technica AT-VM 95 cartridge would be a good choice for that arm. You can buy that cartridge in a premounted headshell as an option.
