DJ Cartridges - have you tried it?

Hi there,

I browsed some DJ cartridges yesterday. They look real appealing and the price aint bad either. What do you think of the infamous DJ cartridge? Good or bad or should it be banned? I want to buy a cheapie just to see how it performs... something like an Ortofon Concord...

Speaking of Carribbean...
In T&T "Trinidad and Tobago" the smallest diameter speaker driver used is a 15"... that should tell you something about the size of the speakers used down dare. "Jump up jump up, everybody wine up wine up"

Midbass are usually 10 inches, and they're critical for punch--that's why they have dedicated amps. Woofs will be around 15 and subs 18". Drivers by JBL, of course!

Right folks - I placed my order online for a Shure Whitelabel DJ Club Cartridge... Will be here mid nextweek.
It is a 'concord' style unit with 'S' mount.

I also own a KAB modified Technics SL1210M5G with KAB modified Stanton "DJ" (Groovemaster) cartridge. Am very impressed with the wonderful sound from this setup.

Got the Shure Whitelabel DJ Club Cartridge.

It sounds surprisingly good. Shure recommends it for "Hi-Fi" use aswell...
