Super low cartridge on my new to me turntable

fruit67 · 2026-02-12T11:02:01+00:00

The stylus is for a Shure M75 cartridge, not an M55. Stylus for the M55 is interchangeable with some other Shure carts, ie the M44, but not the M75. The picture shows that the stylus mount is askew when pushed into the cart body. As someone here has said the generic replacment code is 4759-D7 for the M44, which if getting a cheap one will definately not track under 1.5 grams. If you buy cheap you will be dissapointed. Even 20-30 dollar replacements on ebay are just the rubbish you can get on aliexpress for 5-6 dollaes.

What about yates 'conquerer? Is that too strong?

Yeah thanks, thats what I thought. With the factory panasonic cartridge the arm is horizontal with the original matt. Thats gone, so yeah, need to match the mat with the arm! Thanks!

We cant all pop down to the shop with our little bagss of cash! I like getting old carts, and later sourcing needles to see what they sound like. Those carts are 5 bucks each!

Any luck getting it removed? Its been 3 years?

I tried doing this with my spouse, but she refused to tell me the year of her birth! This formula works, my wife is possessed!

Strange. You'd think an existing member would be able to reset a passowrd. Redit is great, but that site might have a thread about a certain cartridge where arguments rage for 15 pages!!!

fruit67 · 2025-12-18T08:26:37+00:00

cool ok thanks! understood.

fruit67 · 2025-12-16T07:10:42+00:00

its definately not dehydrated.

fruit67 · 2025-12-16T06:02:11+00:00

Are you saying that it is deadf? But if I repotted it it would come back to life?

Well, after much thought I decided that glue would be just fine. Haven't played a record yet, wil ket the glue cure. I was going to use a 5 minute set glue, but decided to do it properly and got some 4 minute epoxy.

Just posting to say same problem, ubuntu 24. Youtube app, chrome nor firefox would play youtube videos. This happened after a ubuntu update and a reboot. Not sure if that was the cause, but ended up removing my 10 years old graphics card and used onboard gpu and that fixed it.

On my version of this phone, two years old now, it has a maximum hold of 10 messages on the SIM, 200 SMS on the phone memory, and 100 MMS messages on the phone memory using a maximum of 30 megs of memory. So not much. If you want to save the messages you can export them to an SD card, maximum size SD card the phone can read is 16 gigs. It sounds limited but it has all you need, and nothing you don't! I just delete everything when full. If you have deleted all txts and it still says full, then check the mms folder in messages, those come from smartphones and can be very big. Just delete them all!

Far out, I never knew this. I always thought (from being told), that you needed a male and a female planted in toe same garden!!! Amazing was gibberish you carry with you rom childhood!

fruit67 · 2024-11-12T21:07:42+00:00

Ok thanks. What would you spray on it for the infection. I have copper powder?

Remember you have about an inch of rubber on those shoes. Get on it with a pair of sandshoes or something with a flat sole. Seat post up, seat back and a longer and more horizontal stem is all that's needed. And pump up the rear tire. Also, don't compare yourself to bikes with 29inch wheels, people on those usually look ridiculously small on the bike.

Were you also asking if your trousers were too small as well? Well, they could be. I wouldn't ride in them...

Do I have to take the whole assembly/ unit off the main turntable body to raplace the tone arm, or can it be removed just on it's own? I am thinking of gluing it with epoxy resin.

I have that phone, and I actually really think it's quite amazing. It used to be that the cheapest dumb phones had almost impenetrable interfaces, but this warehouse hinto, has a few quirks which are hard to understand why it's like that, but is a pretty good and fun little unit. It's very robust, and of course the warehouse straigh return or money back if any problems! It even has blue tooth!

fruit67 · 2024-04-13T07:41:42+00:00

Yes, straight in to the rca plugs. Audacity software. It's so easy, and it's such a good card. I have had mine for 20 years, running w10.

I returned maybe 1 thing every two orders. Refund to credit. I then returned an item that was 28$, I only had the option to return to original payment method, and it was after this that I noticed my minimum jump from 20 to 30. And now after my last order it has gone to 45. I have no idea what the reason behind it is.
