Q: What are turntable needles are called?

A: Turntable needles are alternatively called turntable styluses (or turntable styli if you prefer). Sound is created from records by the needle tracking over grooves and vibrating, which in turn produces sound waves. The needle is the only part of the turntable that is in contact with the record.

Q: What are the different types of record player needles?

A: Two types of steel needles are available. One type will play loud tones, and the other plays soft tones. Different record needle players also come in different shapes or hardness. The more finely pointed the tip of the needle is, the better it will fit into the grooves of the record, reducing wear.

Q: What is a DJ cartridge?

A: DJ cartridges come in two types: moving magnet and moving coil. In an MM cartridge, there are two coils with a magnet, which is attached to the needle shank, suspended between them. As the needle runs along the record, the magnet vibrates and induces a small current in the coils.
