To elaberate to Jeffhs question about stylus's...a little easier to provide a link than to explain.

A good source for vintage needles, etc. By the way, that cartridge on the Magnavox/Collaro is a ceramic type made by Electro-Voice. I have a 58' Maggie AM/FM and Turntable and originally it was tracking at 10 grams so I backed it off 2. You would really have to get extensive with anti-skating, etc if you want to track lighter. I did buy a gauge.

There is a good site that goes into detail about modifications etc. for the Collaro Conquest Turntable.

This site used to be hosted through Yahoo- Geocities (which no longer exists) so make sure the link above takes you there!

I must caution all of you..if you Google Collaro Conquest and hit that first link it may direct you to something that has nothing to do with turntables....

Hopefully the link I provided in my other post above is more direct than through Google. It's a good site with some good links/info to click at the bottom of it.
