Ceramic cartridge for Pioneer PL640 turntable?

February 18th, 2010 by admin

Need a ceramic stylus for a Pioneer PL640 Turntable

Are you confused, or am I?

The cartridge might be a ceramic type but its stylus will be saphire or diamond tipped.

You will almost certainly not find a ceramic cartridge replacement nowadays and it is highly unlikely you will find a replacement stylus either, although they are available for some of the better magnetic cartridges.

If it is the cartridge you want then just replace it with a magnetic one. It will give better results anyway.
