Whatever the VTF is at the gauge is really all that matters. Doesn't the Technoweight have several different dials for setting the VTF? I've only setup one before and seem to remember this?
Can't balance arm with Tecnoweight
I have a Rega P25 with an RB600 tonearm. I recently upgraded my cartridge and counterweight. The cartridge is a Benz Ace LOMC. It weighs 8.8g. When I put the Tecnoweight on the end stub, I can't move the weight back far enough to balance the arm.
The directions say that I have to get the arm to balance (or float) just above the record before dialing in my tracking force. But again, I can't. I'm using the heavier of the two weights, but it's not heavy enough to accomplish this task.
I am able to obtain the proper tracking force using my shure gauge, but I can't help thinking that I must be doing something wrong.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal?
