Picked up a vintage technics turntable for $30. The turntable spins up and holds speed. It came with a headshell but no cartridge. Any suggestions on a inexpensive cartridge? Also how hard is installation? This guy also had a technics SL-1300 direct drive for $50, although it had trouble holding speed. Would it be worthwhile to buy it and have it serviced. Thanks Jockos
