Thanks for the response guys. Let me explain the problem again. When I mount the Dynavector the arm has to be lowered significantly. In doing so the arm is no longer parallel. Also with the arm lowered the cueing mechanism is not effective. As in lowering and raising the queuing stick does not lower or raise the Cart. The arm rest still lowers or raises but the arm it self is not in contact withe the armrest so it has no effect. At this point I realised that the cart did not have enough weight to effect the arm so I tried to set the tracking force which won't go above .3 grams. Now I realise that I have to move the tracking weight to give me some more weight as it is factory set for the slightly heavier CA MM cart. Will try again next week.
Cartridge Question
Hi All
I am a complete noob as far as analog is concerned so please excuse me if this a stupid question.
I have recently purchased a Clear Audio DC package with the Clarify Arm and a Virtuoso V2 Cartridge. It was simple enough to mount the Virtuoso. I also have a Dynavector D17 that someone loaned to me. I decided to try and mount the Dyna which is much smaller then the CA. I did mount it but the arm rides to high and the needle wont make contact. If i lower the arm it has to go very low almost touching the record it self and is no longer paralell to the plinth.
Am i missing something simple in the set up or do I need some sort of spacer between the Arm and the Cart?
Thanks.
