   For the ultimate in skip protection and loudness(good bass repsonse and overall punch) go with the Shure M44-7. They are the best in anti-skipping. Mind you some ortofons are really good, but Shure 'sure' takes the cake.

   I use the Sure M447s
   
   I believe the dj for The Starving Artists Crew used them for the cuts on a few songs.
   
   I swear by those needles.

   No, I've already got decks, it's just when I try some of the more complicated tricks my sh!tty needles always skip.

   sometimes its not only your needles but how you got your decks/cartridges set up
   back in the day i had to have the weights on my decks turned way the hell up so i could juggle/scratch a show but a good buddy of mine just re-orientated my cartridges and adjusted the weight/anti skip on my decks and they were better then ever
   something to think about
   and yeah the m447's are dope
