You'll need a BSR SC11 or SC12 if you are to play Stereo records. If you only plan to play Mono LPs (probably unlikely) then a replica of the original BSR TC8M is available. If you do fit a Stereo cartridge, you will need to bridge the LH and RH channels, otherwise you will not hear the full content of the record. This is best done using the tag card on the underside of the autochanger.
