what kind of cartridge comes with this turntable?

It is actually a diamond needle, according to an e-mail reply I received from Numark.

It's a ceramic (piezoelectric) cartridge that tracks somewhere between 2 and 4 grams...not the best for record life. Don't play 78 rpm records with the stock needle...you'll destroy them. See my other answers below for further explanation.

It's a generic one, not a professional one. The kind you see on the "vintage" turntables sold at Target and stuff. This is a terrible turntable by the way.

Mine came with a cartridge, maybe I got lucky. I was surprised especially at the price.

This is just the stylus, which attaches to the cartridge (the cartridge is what attaches to the arm on the turntable). If you have an Ortofon cartridge, this will work with it.

Yes, this cartridge should work with all vintage turntable. It comes as a P-mount and an adapter for old style mounting.

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.

Don't know. My experience with this turntable was not good. Drive belt distended and replacement cost was way too high. Sorry.

Been a while. I don't remember but I think it included the cartridge. It's straight forward, still working.

This turntable comes with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, so any speakers that can plug into those will work!

You can get a 78rpm stylus for the included cartridge at LPgear.com. No need to get another cartridge.

No. It comes with a pretty decent cartridge pre-installed in a headshell. You may want to upgrade later if you are a more demanding listener.

This turntable should have a pre amp built in. If it doesnt you will need it. I have the audio technica lp 120 and the pre amp on that is fine

I use a Nagaoka MP-110 cartridge. Very good sound. Recommended by Don Lindich in Star Tribune, Minneapolis.

You can buy Q-up if you want it to pick up the tonearm at the end of the record. You can also look into vintage turntable's like the Sony psx-600 turntable.
