hey yall I recently bought a Technics SL-23 which had a bad stylus. The cartridge used a type of stylus which has been out of manufactury for years now, and is expensive as shit to replace. I bought what I expected to be a cartridge compatible with the AT3600L (turned out to be a *slightly* different chinese aftermarket part. I plan to buy direct from AT’s website in the future). I’ve verified the pin connections to the headstock, and the RCA cables, but for some reason, output sounds like a bad radio or something. Help a brother out here, what’s wrong?
