If moving coil cartridges can be retipped and moving magnet cartridges have replaceable styli, how long can a cartridge itself last? I have an Audio Technica AT130E that I bought back in the 80's with a 6 month old stylus on it and I'll put it up against any C.D. deck on the market.
I don't know for sure, but I've heard with proper care they can last ages. I bet if you typed in the info of yours into a search you could pull up all the info you want on it, to know for sure.
