New stylus or cartridge
Currently got a 2m red fitted so but had problems with hum spoke to local sealer and he said the red some times does that so do i upgrade to a2m blue or he said look at a Audio Technica VM520EB Dual mm Cartridge .
Advice please on a very restricted budget £125 max
There isn't really anything wrong with a 2m blue. My advice would be to put a wanted ad in the Private exhibitions area and let the cartridges come to you. If you can find a Technics EPC (forgot the numbers) for that money, I'd suspect you'd be very happy.

You won't find an EPC-U205 with a decent stylus for that money.Originally Posted by Bigman80
If it has the original stylus, the chances are that the suspension is shot anyway, and will need replacing. It is a good cartridge, but so it an AT150MLX if you can find one second hand, but it all depends what sound you are after.

Absolute no brainer here Gerald http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Denon-DL11...MAAOSwG7lZy~mq
can be used through your mm phono stage I believe being high output mc - Be quick !!
Very low hours (50hrs) according to seller who has 100% feedback across 911 transactions so looks a safe bet IMO

Great shout Robbie. Didn't realise the 205 had gone up that much. One passed through my hands for £120 a couple years back.

You can still get a 205 cheap, but it won't have a decent stylus.
