I have a newer green bullet and don't want to buy a new microphone.So my question is barring the $199 crystal cartridge, what (around $99) is going to give crystal sound? And where do I purchase it close to Baltimore? I just bought a new speaker upgrade and a soldering iron to solder the wires in so in keeping with the way this "hobby" goes, having the soldering iron, I would like to unsolder and then solder the new cartridge in with your help...thank you...

Dave Wren usually has some good crystals and ceramics on the cheaper side. See if anything strikes your fancy.

Don't assume you have to have a "crystal" to get good tone. Some crystals have good tone, some don't. And you can get great tone from dynamic elements like Shure CR and CM elements.
