A suggestion for MM/MC cartridge manufacturers


In case any of your are reading....

Please include a cheap "dummy" very simple steel stylus with your next offering so it can be used to align the cartridge, rather than the original stylus, so that if any mistakes are made, the real stylus does not get destroyed.

Thanks

cakyol-

I feel your frustration. Any real hifi enthusiast has lost $ crashing a nice cart.

There isn’t a need for your request. I’m nearing 60, poor eyesight along with the other aging deficits.

The secret to a DIY cart setup is patience. Slow, deliberate moves around that little clump of expensive audio nonsense.

If one can’t incorporate include this during the process, pay to have it done.

Never had an install disaster, but enough careless maneuvers, while playing a record.
