Disco use challenges a cartridge... that's why Stanton is the overwhelming first choice of disco pros.
------ Richie Kaczor. Jockey at Hollywood Disco. New York City, NY.
Discotheques represent one of the most grueling professional situations for a pickup that can be imagined. Not only must the cartridge achieve a particular high level of sound excellence, it must do so in the "live" environment of back cueing, slip cueing, heavy tracking forces, vibration and potential mishandling ... where a damaged stylus means much more than lost music, it means lost business.
The Discotheque is a commercial venture. It must have as little "down time" as possible... that is why disco operators look for durability and reliability in their equipment. And, that is why leading dealers and professional distributors recommend the Stanton product for this purpose.
Stanton has two cartridges eminently suited to Discotheques, both designed with optimum ratios of vertical stylus force, compliance, stylus shank strength ... the calibrated 681SE, which possesses superb audio performance, and the more modest 500AL. Both are tough. Both perform beautifully, and dependably. And that's what a Discotheque needs.
Whether your usage involves recording ... broadcasting ... disco or home entertainment, your choice should be the choice of the Professionals ... STANTON. For further information write:
