Hi everyone, first post here.

recently acquired a bang&olufsen beogram 1202 - however I've noticed that the stylus is bent.

It is the SP14 cartridge, and I know that the needle is replaceable, but I've also read that it can be expensive..

 

Has anyone got any advice on how to do this/what a suitable replacement would be?

thanks

Hello and welcome to the Forums Smile

Having gone through process of restoring a B&O turntable, I can recommend Sound-Smith, whom specialise in replacement cartridges:

Heres another place for you Pasi. By all accounts their rebuilds are more akin to the B&O originals than the Soundsmiths.
