    how important are headshells.

    I bought shure M44-7 carts, I checked its one per package

    also I left them overnight in my car and it was pretty cold, will that affect them at all?

    I would guess not so very important, but I saw when doing a search in Google that most users of M44-7
    uses the technics 1200 headshells so it would proberbly be a good recommendation.
    Other than that I would look for gold platted connectors on the headshell….
    The cold car would not effect them but moisture would.

    That would work very well IMO. And I do not believe that your gear has taken any affect by being in your car.

    Just think of that any electrical equipment should not been used before reaching room temperature if it has been in
    a very hot or cold place. Just take it inside and wait a while before connecting it and you will be fine.

    I just put them on my headshells but forgot the plastic washers under the screws, is it that important? will there be any electric feedback becuase of it?

    unless you are getting feedback from vibration or 60 cycle hum I wouldn’t worry about it.

    How are they working without for you so far?
