I've heard that local climate impacts the rubber O-ring at the base of the cantilever - hot and dry causing it to become brittle more quickly.
What is it the wears out on a cartridge?
The answer may be obvious, but it is actually the stylus or the suspension that wears out?
The next logical question is...What can be done to extend the life of a cartridge? Cleaning the stylus? How does temperature, humidity, and light affect the life of a cartridge? Anything else?
