Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections — from record digging and DJing around the globe — coalesces into a 2-hour journey through Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Rock & Roll, and all points in between. Your speakers will be head-nodding, toe-tapping & even two-stepping to this vintage 45rpm party in no time. Hear favorite songs you didn't know were your favorites, aural treats & record-world problems from the vinyl side of life.

Watched 'White Noise' over the weekend. Enjoyed. And I have my doubts that there will be a better end credits song/dance scene than in that movie this year!

How long does the stylus usually last? I haven’t used a turntable regularly since 2005.

JtotheK:

↳ Kris Holmes @10:39
yeah, i'm overdue to get some replacement needles. (I think I sent you a pic of my current frankenstein setup.) I have Ortofon, ordered the WRONG replacement, but if the jico white label knock offs are good ... then likely I'll try those.
Avatar 10:43pm
Kris Holmes:

I usually get 1-2 years out of a set. But it depends how many hours of play they get.
Avatar 10:45pm
Kris Holmes:

When I was Doing a lot I'd change them every year. Now I can probably get 2 years out of a set.
Avatar 10:49pm
Kris Holmes:

Jason, you should be able to get the correct Ortofon stylus for your setup fairly easy?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:51pm
JtotheK:

↳ Kris Holmes @10:49
indeed! I don't recall exactly what I did wrong - but I tried to order a less expensive ortofon stylus thinking it'd be compatible with my cart.
