    Might be your needle. One time when my needle was wearing out, one channle just went silent...

  • I think one of my needles is having this issue, thanks for reminding me bout it I'm gonna go get me a new one today.

    As long as there's a discussion of needles going on...

    What needles are people using right now, and what are their relative advantages/disadvantages?

    I'm finally tossing my old M-447 and I just bought an SC35C. I thought I could go cheaper because I'm not an active DJ. Honestly though, the new one sounds like crap in comparison. I hate to think I just threw away $50, but I need to find some inexpensive needles that sound better than this.

    SC35C
    M-447

    i'm not a Dj so i don't know but the difference is that noticeable eh?

    i need to get a new one regardless, i've been listening on this wack one where the high pitches just drop out on some records. Specifically the guitar melody on the first track of Garvey's Ghost. After the drums, the guitar plays that melody, but mines just drops out! WACK.
