Oh I have one more tip. Most of the Ortofon OM moving magnet cartridges, including the Concorde models, are exactly the same with the only difference being the styli that you pair them with. That means you can switch from a spherical DJ to an expensive elliptical stylus depending on what you're doing without rewiring the headshell or keeping a second set of cartridges/headshells. e.g. if you want to sample, record or just listen then use the elliptical set for better sound quality and lower wear. The spherical styli have a smaller contact patch with the groove but track better when scratching or cueing.
