A question for the vinyl/hi-fi buffs. My Audio-Technica AT-OC9XSL (MC cartridge) has died. It could sound a bit 'edgy' with less-than-mint vinyl (I buy a lot), could that be due to the Line Contact stylus? The AT-OC9XSH (Shibata tip) is £80 cheaper. I'd sacrifice a bit of performance for robustness.
