Go on Amazon, there's an Audio Technica stylus that fits it. I believe it's the AT3600L? Like $12.

I've just got teh cheap audio-technica at-lp60 (I think), but I'm always really surprised at how good it sounds! However, I should probably upgrade pretty soon, seeing as I've got about 30-40ish albums now. Any recommendations that won't wreak financial havoc on me?

Anyone else surprised at how many small-time modern bands still get vinyl pressed to please the hipsters?
I love it.

This is my turntable. I bought it from ebay for 67€. It's a Dual CS 505-4. Dual is a well known name here in Germany, they were one of the most famous German turntable producers. The company still exists, and the CS 505-4, which was introduced in the 80s, is a model they're still producing with only a few changes. The modern 505-4's are being sold new for a price of 550€ so I think I got a good deal. One of the most notable changes in the new ones is that they're using a cheaper cartridge. While I have one of the older ones which still come with a Dual ULM 68E, which is identical to the Ortofon OMB 20, the newer ones come with a Ortofon OMB 10. I ordered a new needle for the cartridge, but even with the old needle it sounds great.

But of course:
