Zenith ML2670-3 Stereo Console Record Player Needle

by merber007 » Thu Oct 06, 2011 6:48 pm

I am new to record players and have bought a new console and need to replace the needle. I called around to record stores in Chicago and all of them said to buy online since it's a vintage player- but there are so many choices, I was overwhelmed.

Here is my console:

It did not come with an instruction manual and I don't know what kind of needle it takes or how to replace it. Can you help me find a needle that will work on this? I am looking for mid quality, under $75 if that exists...

Thank you in advance!
Meredith

I believe that you can use any of the styli (needles) on this page. There is no upgrade available without substantial modification to both the record changer and the electronics of the stereo, so don't even think about that.

Gary Stork has Zenth needles on his "voice of music" website and he's reasonable.
Tell him ole Matt sent ya! :wink:
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.

Somehow I must have left the link off my post above. This is the list of styli that will work on that Zenith.
