Do I have to buy a cartridge with it? If so, what do you recommend?

Yes, you'll need to buy a cartridge, but the turntable sounds great. Records sound close to the origional master, dinamic and alive, with that alluring analogue soft-sweetness. I also have a Stanton ST-150, and I much preference the Audio Technica over the Stanton. The fit and finish of the Audio Tecknica is head and shoulders above the Stanton. The sound of the two are identical, but when it comes to looks, as well as price, the Audio Technica 1240 stands above the Stanton, like a tiger stands above a leopard. I'm using a Stanton Groovemaster v3 MP4. It's easy to install, just plug in it. It's sounds very professional. It's a true remastering cartridge, and it's verily inexpensive.

I bought 2 different cartridges so far. the first was an http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GVJ9XG/ref=oh_details_o08_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 it was fairly good general cartridge. the second is http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006I5SB/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 wow It has gone down in price. The second one seems better for jazz, and sense I listen to more jazz than any other on vinyl I have been using the second one more often. I bought multiple head shells so I could have multiple cartridges and switch them easier. This was the head shell I purchased do go with the Ortofon Omega cartridge. The ortolan seems to have more highs that the shire m97. but the Shure cartridge makes Steely Dan sound so good. the sax has this warmth and punch which cd and mp3 just can't give you. I am totally happy with the Audio Technica turntable paired with the Shure cartridge. at least for my music tastes.

Yes, you have to. I bought this one: Shure M97xE High-Performance Magnetic Phono Cartridge It seems to be recommended by Audio-Technica. You can read reviews about it on that amazon page.
752367
Yes you do need a cartridge for it. If you scratch, go with Shure. If you blend/pitch mix, go for Otofon. I use Otofon Concorde Pro S. Sounds great.
752368
Yes, you do. I have a Shure M97xE on it now and I'll probably get another when the time comes.
752369
Yes you need a cartridge. I would without a doubt recommend. Audio-Technica at-440mla

Yes u do. I believe its any universal. I bought the ortofon concorde djs. Sounds great and the style is on point!! Great turntable. I hear sure cartridges are nice too. Oh and it does come with a headshell but no cartridge. The concorde however has a headshell built into the cartridge. Looks like a pinky runnin over the record. Check em out.
752371
yes you have to buy one,the cartridge....it depends of what you do with the turntable,if it "dj" work , you have to go with orthofon "dj cartridge" because it heavy duty ,if you are like me, you like the good look and the features on it,and you are rather "audiophile" surely i recomande te ortofon "red".

It does not come with a needle. I highly recommend the shure m44-7 (for a reasonable price). I tried a few and this is the best. It does come with a headshell so you only need the cartridge (about 58$) Also, I own the shure m97xE that the others recommend, and I dislike it compared to this one. It's more of an audiophile needle, whereas I primarily listen to rock, metal and punk very loud.

You will need to buy a cartridge. I purchased and recommend the Shure M97xe. I would also recommend that you research the Ortofon 2M Red. Although if you are planning on scratching, I'm not really too sure.

No computer is required. I use mine for occasional copies. Replacement cartridges are listed and priced under parts list on Amazon ie, PC170. It will give the price of the cartridge. No, it only does black and white copies. For my needs, this was an excellent buy. I did not buy the cartridge until I actually need it. Depending on usage of the copier, a cartridge can sit around in the sealed box for ages and then when you need it, it is all caked and a waste of money to buy one early. Cartridges that are factory sealed could have sat on a shelf for years and then they are sold at a discounted price and are totally useless. Buy a fresh cartridge when you need it.

It comes with a cartridge, but no converter. I did try and dry-fit a spare converter I had lying around, and it was a bit of a squeeze but it did seem to take. That said, did not ink it, so I can't promise the seal is good. However, the cartridge appears to be standard, and the barrel is definitely long enough to accommodate (the tight fit was circumferences rather than length), so I don't see why there would be any problems.

no that's one reason why I wouldn't buy it again! Buy the cheaper version for games and such, but you'll have to buy individual cartridges at 20 some bucks each!!!

Make the purchase this cartridge is great. I swear for the price you can't go wrong.

There should be videos on YouTube for any question you have about the pen. Mine already came with a cartridge loaded.

Without a cartridge, you can strum to a song. It plays chords and harmonizing tones. The cartridges do have actual songs so you can strum long and harmonize to them.

I recommend you go with what the printer/copier recommends; then order that product from Amazon. That was I did. I looked at what came with the printer, then order the ink/cartridge from Amazon.

It comes with very small sample cartridges. And I just found out the cartridges are a little pricey. Cost me almost $60 for one black and one color cartridge at Wal-Mart.

I believe comes with a starter cartridge; is compatible with my MAC OS 10. But - I do not recommend this printer. It jams more than it prints.

I haven't had to buy any replacement cartridges yet. I've had mine for several months, using it a couple times a week.

Yes, but it's not like a full cartridge and you will have to purchase another one in due course if you want it to last very long.

Hi, I can't answer that... But I had a regular cartridge to my knowledge. I refilled it with this kit and it worked great. Follow the directions. Warning: It is initially very difficult to puncture the cartridge with the needle provided. I had to get help from hubby. BUT after that smooth sailing AND enough ink for years probably. Printer still reads ink as empty.

Search for the website where you enter the name of your player and it will tell you the proper cartridge. I don't know the name of the website but you should find it pretty easily. That's how I figured out what cartridge I needed.
