Sures are the best all-around cartridges for 78s.There aer better sounding ones,from an audiophool standpoint,but Sures haven't been on the market longer than many collectors have been alive,for nothing.USB 'tables are a new beastie.A really good quality one is only a mater of time.

Ceramic cartridges needs to be correctly loaded for proper frequency
response.

Something like 1 megohm is the proper load, anything less and the bass
response suffers greatly.

You will not see 1 megohm input impedance on any soundcard that I know
of.

So this is quite suboptimal indeed.
