Change the cartridge or phono stage

Elevick ;
I don't have the tools or ability to make those type of adjustments . The table is a new purchase . The manufacturer claims to set up the included cartridge from the factory and the dealer checked it out .
Are you including the cartridge and phono stage into that turntable warmth comment ?

If turntables are anything like amps and CDP's , I don't think that cables will give the amount of added warmth that I am looking for .

Yes it is a Music Hall MMF 5.1 turntable and a pa1.2 phono stage , also my Music Hall . This is playing through a tubed , El-34 , integrated amp into Reference 3a speakers .

Thank You and keep the help coming .

I don't have a problem with having my dealer install a new cartridge .
I have an EL-34 amp already . It does not have a way , that I know of , to run a separate pre-amp into it . Or at least it doesn't have an amp in connection . I think that I need a stand alone phono stage . Or am I missing something here ?

Thank You

Roscoeiii ;
That is an interesting theory on the transducer transformations .
I went through a bunch of phono stage threads and did not find much useful info for my situation . The Music Hall PA1.2 phono stage is SS and I do prefer tubes that are on the warmer side of things such as EL-34's . I don't know where the Ortofon cartridge sits in the warm/cool range .

Almarg ;
I have sent an email to Music Hall .

I will start another thread asking for recs for a particular
component when I decide which way to go .

Thank you
