Phono cartridge retro fit?
#12

Thats great to hear!  I've heard you can just stick the new cartridge into the tone arm with glue or even two way tape if there's no easy permanent solution.  I will probably go with the same cartridge for my M-22 but first just for fun I'm growing my own Rochelle salt crystals to see if I can get the tilt cartridge working again.  I've already grown some and if I can get the next batch to come out big enough (1/2"x-1/2") I should be able to do it.  You have to put two sheets of crystal together so they can vibrate against each other to make a working piezo element.  Like I said it's just for fun to see if I can actually get halfway decent sound out of it but in the end I'll most likely end up doing what you've done with the bridged stereo cartridge so I'll be able to play stereo LP's and 45's along with my 78's.
