Confused - Seeburg V200 Redhead cartridge replace for best sound?
Ok, I've searched the archives and now more confused. New to the
jukebox world and started with a recently purchased a V200 that came with a redhead cartridge (mono?) and straight needles. I am in the process of learning as I clean it, will have both old and newer 45s. Did take all the advise and never turned it on when received as it was sitting for 17 years. For best sound there seems to be three standard options. 1. Use .7mil Diamond Tip stereo dog leg/cantilever type needles in the Redhead. A thread in 2006 scared me about reproduction vs. original assume I should look for original. 2. Replace Red Head with Pickering 345-07D? 3. Go with a new Vern Tisdale Seeburg Cartridge If I go with a newer stereo cartridge do I need to have someone modify the amp to get best sound? Oh...I will have the amp and receiver gone through by someone with experience, I don't think its worth my time to tackle that part at this point. |

Confused - Seeburg V200 Redhead cartridge replace for bestsound?
I have tried those expensive cartridges . I borrowed an OD3 pickering
They all gave weak sound .. it was clear but very wimpy . Have not tried the Tisdale one . I own a Seeburd G mono machine that i tried these in . I got hold of an old Pickering # ??? its gold in color aluminum case the same size as the red head and it takes little bitty `L` shaped needles. This cartridge by far sounds better than any i tried it sounds 2 times better .. more volume more bass and trebble . It plays old and brand new records alike . |

I'd like to hear from someone who's tried the new Vern Tisdale
cartridge. I visited him a couple of years back when he was developing it. I know he's put a lot of work in the cartridge. Matt |
