Zilver said:O.k. Mattu so you're one of the few people who believe elliptical wear less that spherical.
Could you explain a bit more about your mixing style?
Do you scratch or back cue a lot? Can you name your favorite DJ or a DJ who's style is very similar to yours.
I scratch ocassionaly. And I want to keep doing this. But I don't want my records to wear!
I know Dave Clark uses Ortofon Gold (elliptical), and he definitely scratches a lot with them. Although I don't think he cares about record wear at all.
Yes, dont worry. These 2 modelas are very little different.
Its hard to choose because one is proportional to another, if you scratch no one can tell if its more wear or less.
Dont trust everyone! there are great ppl in this forums, but everyone got their own preference.
So the best way is to try yourself. Take the crapest record you have, go to the local shop and ask them to try all carts they have, and dont forget to say to them that you would like to buy some, and just try, scratch with different and you will hear which do more wear.
In your case just stick to your Es. they will not wear much because you gonna scratch a little.
I gonna try shure M44G, many ppl recommended it has the smallest wear than any othe carts.
