” As for wear-induced noise, most of that comes from playing records with a worn-out or damaged stylus (aka needle) that’s literally gouging the grooves with each play. Any decent cartridge will play records without damaging the groove. Just make sure the stylus tracking force is set to the cartridge manufacturer’s recommendation. A force setting that’s too high or too low can accelerate record wear and noise.”
