Perhaps the Era IV is damaged. Any luck with other cartridges and the Era IV?
Advice needed as to Shure M 97 HE / Era IV
Having a Shure M 97 HE /Era IV cartridge system which is almost unused but tracks incorrectly and sounds distorted and harsh, especially at "forte" passages, I wonder if this could be related to a dry rubber suspension? On the other hand, in another thread on this forum I luckily noticed an answer from Shure saying that there are no parts inside the pickup assembly that will deteriorate, and that a new stylus puts the cartridge to its original condition like when it was new.
May I in this case take for granted the same answer; that my M 97 HE / Era IV only needs a new stylus in order to be in perfect working order?
