I had good results from an Exact/P5 combo and when Iupgraded to the P7 I chose a DV20XH cartridge - a step above the Exact in detail and musicality. My Exact is now my backup cartridge.
Bent cantilever on Exact 2......oops
As I was removing an LP from the platter last night, I accidently hit the back of my hand into my Rega Exact 2 cartridge, and now the cantilever is bent. The "new" position is about 10 - 15 degrees inward, and about 10 degrees downward. It still seems to be tracking normally, and after playing several familiar tracks after "the accident," I cannot perceive of any changes in the sound of music.
What should I do ? Buying a new cartridge is not part of my overall household budget right now. Since the music still sounds great, can I just keep playing my LP's without worry ? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.
