I agree with @stringreen - it sounds like improper setup. A paper template is simply insufficient. The best and most accurate gauges use a mirror to align not the phono cartridge, but the cantilever/stylus itself. Using anything less than that is a hit-or-miss proposition.
Dynamics varying with track position.
I’m finding that dynamics and timbre improve as the cartridge moves toward the inner 1/2 of the album. Running a DL 103r. Aligned on my 303 arm with Regan paper protractor. Also a slight emphasis on the left channel. Tried realigning/ checking overhang and I’ve heard no change. Also checked the alignment with the Ortofon guide. Any one have a thought on the cause or remedy for this?
thanks.
