You will need a phono cartridge alignment tool to install this, or any cartridge correctly. Running any cartridge that is not aligned correctly will damage the needle and your records, and sound poorly. Cartridge performance is also determined by the quality of the turntable, tonearm, foundation, wiring and amplifiers. If a turntable is having problems with excessive rumble, improperly mounted tonearm etc, then any cartridge mounted on it would sound poor as a result.Click here for the complete selection of cartridges and Needles |

Bubble Levels $5.00Shopping Cart Supports Paypal, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express Ensuring that your turntable platter is perfectly level is critical to obtaining correct tracking performance. This simple, accurate bubble level is perfect for the job. It is 36mm or 1-7/16 inches in diameter. Remove the platter pad and place the level on the bare metal platter with the motor off. Place shims under the foundation as necessary to make the bubble appear in the center of the printed circles. Observe the motion of the bubble to test for wobble in the foundation. Do whatever you can to make the foundation heavy and stable, to prevent the transmission of feedback to the turntable. Quiet foundations allow enhanced detail and dynamic range in the audio signal. |

Phono Stage Preamplifier
| ![]() |
A phono stage preamplifier is required if your stereo does not have a phono input. This preamp takes the tiny signal from the phono cartridge (about 3.5 to 5.0 millivolts) and brings it up to an appropriate line level signal, which can be plugged into the auxiliary inputs of any modern stereo system, home theater or computer sound card. It also has an RIAA equalization circuit to decode the compressed signal on any LP, EP or 45 RPM record made after 1948. Works with any moving magnet cartridge; moving coil cartridges make a lower level signal and will require an additional gain stage amplifier. Moving coil cartridges are very expensive and are usually marked MC on the cartridge body.
Unit features Left and Right RCA female type inputs and outputs, plus a stereo (TRS) 1/4" output. A ground lug is also provided for turntable grounding.

ART DJ Pre-II Phono Stage Preamplifier. $65.00
Shopping Cart Supports Paypal, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express Perfect for plugging your turntable into a stereo with no magnetic phono inputs, or a computer soundcard. In addition to providing the required gain, this unit also adds necessary RIAA equalization to compensate for the industry standard EQ curve utilized on LPs. Includes gain control to set recording levels. If you are plugging this into a couputer sound card to record music digitally, it is recommended that you set the software input volume control at 100% and use the preamp's gain control to set the level.Unit features L/R RCA female type inputs and outputs, plus a stereo (TRS) 1/4" output.

RCA Stereo To 3.5mm Stereo Mini-Jack Adapter. $5.00.
If you're planning to record your LPs onto Recordable CDs on your computer, this is the adapter you need. Very hard to find! Many other adapters are for a 1/8 in. mini-jack, which is .013 inches too small. A 1/8 in. jack will fit, but the electrical contact will not be solid, and it will jiggle and likely fall out. This is a true 3.5 mm mini-jack, the correct size for your computer sound card. To record an LP onto a computer will require a phono-stage circuit with RIAA equalization. Going directly from the cartridge to the soundcard will not produce a correct signal. Either use a stereo receiver with a phono circuit, or the phono stage premplifier described further down the page. |
