Antiskate issue.


I had just found out using a test record that my antiskate was way to much. I used close to the tracking force. I know I probably damaged some of my records. I have around 300 hours on the Benz L2. Have I damaged my cartridge also??? I am not an expert at setting up a TT and I made a mistake on this. I have a DP protractor and the set up procedures for the Graham 2.2. I also have an Acoustic Signiture Final Tool. Oh read this. I emailed the factory about a small speed variation. You can adjust it. Less than one minute later I get a call from them!!!!! Talk about service.

Dear Blueranger: I don't think that you really make a damage to your records and certainly not to your cartridge.

As you say: what a service from Acoustic Signature !!!! Yes it is to easy to fine adjust the speed variation either 33 or 45 rpm: the pots are at hand in the power supply.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Eldartford: I agree with neil about the AS/VTF subject, well, I'm not " remembering ": I'm using " old " design MM and in almost all operation manuals the manufacturer recomended same AS/VTF, either with eliptical/spheric or micro ridge stylus.

Neil, reading to all my tonearm operation manuals I understand that the value of the AS is refered like a weight: in grs.

Dear Eldartford: Yes, we agree that equal is too much.
