Cartridge Setup?


Being a confirmed Audiogonoholic, I love the idea of getting a great deal on a cartridge for my just-acquired turntable rig.I hate the idea of going to a dealer and paying retail for a cartridge. But I'm really nervous about the prospect of setting up my own system. Any thoughts?

Thanks, David

The right equipment makes all the difference. I don't know if I would even try it w/o my MoFi Geodisc. They are still obtainable Along with that you need a scale for setting the tracking force. I use a cheap Shure gage from Lyle Cartridges. Laura Deerborn Gives excellent tips in her book "Good Sound." Along with step by step instructions. As has been pointed out already be prepared to spend some time. Don't bother if you are clumsy or can't work in confined spaces. It's not as hard as it sounds. Have fun!!!
