      $12.89 not bad for a new needle.

          Check your amp it there is no phono inputs you will have to get a preamp for the unit.

              Here's a good website for new needles:

                  Hey Mike,

                  Are you getting one to just transfer records over to something digital? If so you should get one of the many usb turntables out now. You can always swap the needle with a better dj one if needed

                      its just for playing vinyl thinking of starting to buy them again not for digital transfer

                        Ahhh ok. If you have a dj store by you you can probably find/get some nice turntables there
