only bought it yesterday, played one record and the needle fell out, its the ortofon 5e cartridge.. can it be put back in or is it scrap ? .. thankyou
 
Sorry to hear that you're having problems with your Elemental.

Has the stylus come away from the body of the cartridge or do you mean that cantilever (the metal part that makes contact with the record) has come away from the plastic body?

Please reply with more detail and I can advise you further.

hi..many thanks for the reply..
its the tiny actual needle part that touches the record that has fallen out of the plastic cartridge head.
i have looked inside the plastic head with a magnifying glass and all i can see is a small flat round metal contact, no signs of a snap or anything.. hope that makes sense

p.s. all i did was lift the cantilever up and i saw what i thought was dust and noticed it was the actual needle
 
In which case please contact the dealer you purchased it from for a replacement stylus 5e.

Thanks
