The Orofon Nightclub needles (the ones with the yellow tip) are your best bet. you got yourself a quailty set.
I use those for recording all the time... remember, you also need a high quality mixer and recorder (preferably something digital) but any medium to high quality equipment will do you great with those!
I have tried many needles, and by far the loudest, clearest and the one with the least pops and ticks is the nightclub.

True to a point...
Records are "mechanical" and with that there will allways be "record Noise". you can't avoid it... but higher grade needles can deffinatly reduce the pop's and ticks.

I was considering buying one of those one-piece cartridges and was wondering if the stanton and orofon are comparable. Is one better than the other? Which is the best model for the buck? Can someone tell me.

I don't want to knock the stanton, but the ones that look like the Orofon night club's are a clear knock off.
Stanton is a great brand, plus they have been around for a long time... they are trust worthy and long lasting needles.
but the Orofon are far superior. much better sound quality and durable. they cost a little more than the stanton (about 110 bucks each) but once you get one pair, they will last you a long time. plus they come in a cool case with an extra stylus.
if you compare them side by side, you can tell that you get more bang for you buck when it comes to Orofon.
I have used both brands, and i have been in the biss for a while. Both work great, but i pick Orofon.

Yo, I am glad to see another shopper of Pro Sound in Cali. I am using Statons on my 1200's but depending on the application, I go with the 680EL MKII for general use and 505SK for scratchin' purposes.
