No you can not change the cartridge. The tone arm is not adjustable and is calibrated for the cartridge that it ships with. Therefore you wouldn't want to change the cartridge. You can however change the stylus. There are inexpensive options available that will improve the sound. I saw a demo online of someone changing it to an "elliptical" for less than $10. This did improve the sound, but to be honest this table sounds great out of the box. You should also note that you can not disable the built in pre-amp. This table is pretty much the same as the Audio Technica LP-60, but the Pioneer features a strobe light for speed/pitch adjustment where the AT does not. This table is certainly better than many others available in the price range.
