Replace stylus or new cartridge?


Should I replace a stylus on an old (I bought it new a long time ago) Grado TLZ fir $325 or buy a new Nagaoka MB-300 for roughly twice that?

One advantage is: if you do not have tools and alignment skills, replacement stylus goes into undisturbed cartridge. 

Do you have fixed arm or removable headshell?

I would ask Grado, if body this old, new stylus wise?

Next, check what they would sell for with a new stylus

Now decide: keep same sound, invest to sell, buy something new?

or, both: stylus for Grado AND something new.
