Stanton GrooveMaster.V3 Cartridge Review

Posted by djblaze on 09/14/11

Check out the full rundown review video of the Stanton Groovemaster.V3 MP4 high-end club integrated headshell cartridges. We completed a written review a while back on these, but wanted to provide everyone with a bit more detail and a nice video to go along with it. Big Shout-outs to Stanton for sending a new set of Matched Pair needles for the testing. The Groovemaster needles are perfect for high-quality audio playback and mixing style DJ's. Watch the video review inside to see if the Groovemasters are right for you.

Stanton 520-SK Craze Review

Posted by d mac on 04/05/10

Great performance at an even better price. The 520 SK Craze is a headshell mounted cartridge great for skatch DJs. Endorsed by World Skratch Champion DJ Craze, the Stanton 520 SK also sports a chrome body which reduces background hum.

Shure M44-7 Review

Posted by d mac on 04/05/10

The king of scratch cartridges. The Shure M44-7 's high price tag is worth it for its great performance. If set up porperly and broken in, these cartridges almost never skip. The Shure M44-7 also boasts a low tracking force, which translates into minimum record wear. Higly recommended for skratch DJs.

Shure M44G Review

Posted by d mac on 11/09/05

The Shure M44G scratch/club cartridge offers the same low record wear found in the M447. It differs from its brother in that it is a little less skip resistant, but has a more balanced output with better sound quality. Because of this, the Shure M44G is ideal for both club and skratch DJs.
