Review on Numark CC 1RS Replacement Turntable Cartridge by Matt Vanlaere

$99 for a pair). in 2006 when I bought my Gemini TT04 turntables ($350 each). The cartridges have lasted as long as the players. 11 years strong and working. I have to say that in all my years I have not found a combination that is as good as these cartridges and players for their price. Too bad the Gemini TT04 turntables were discontinued just 5 years later. These are the best decks I have outside of Technics. The funny thing is that all new decks from Pioneer to Technics are now made as TT04s. from the motor/rotor design to additional features like LED lights, pitch selector, detachable target light, reverse function, the ability to play 78 external start and stop settings, and a detachable RCA and ground cable. It looks like they were the first and thwarted. such a shame.
