Accidentally dropped Benz cartridge on moving acrylic platter for my VPI Scout

You can always inspect the stylus with a magnifying glass. If it's damage you will certainly know from visual inspection. However, if there was no degradation in sound, you are fine. I once dropped a Miyajima mono cartridge on my platter while mounting it on the tonearm.  It was toast. This of course is different from what you did.

no chance.... like others have said....when playing a record, if you hear nothing untoward, you're good to go.

I did the same thing with my Benz onto my VPI HW-19. I dropped the arm short of the platter, then overreacted and jerked the arm up so it bounced off the record.

Damage? Maybe the Benz cantilever is slightly off on the azimuth. I've used a Geodisc to measure things and, when I'm feeling saucy enough, I'll adjust the tonearm a bit to ever-so-slightly to adjust the azimuth.

But I can't be sure the azimuth wasn't off before the drop.

If the records sound the same, then steady on.

No, you have completely destroyed your cartridge beyond repair. Send it to me ASAP I'll dispose of it properly.

Take a sigh of relief and enjoy the music.

The groves in typical vinyl records are MUCH more brutal than the surface of a clean VPI acrylic platter. 

If the rig still plays a record sounds OK, all is good. 

If something had happened to your stylus or cantilever, you would hear it.

Sshhhh... be quiet, be very, very quiet.......

Happy Listening!

Have no worries.

Should be fine.

Chill out dude everything sounds and looks good your OK.
