Let it brake in for at least 50 hours. Also, judging by what you said, I can't understand which cartridge you consider more balanced and coherent. And, since Dyna 20 is heavier and different in other aspects, the interaction with tonearm is different too.
Dynavector 20XH W/ Rega P5- Less Bass Than 10X5?
Afternoon All,
I had a friend install a Dynavector 20XH on my Rega P5 a few days ago, replacing the 10X5.
We used the Baerwald protractor and everything looked to be pretty much dead on. Tracking force was set at 2.04 grams, and there's already a 2mm spacer installed under the tonearm.
This is a very nice cartridge, but it doesn't seem to have the floor-vibrating lows that the 10X5 can deliver. Is this just a normal characteristic of the 20XH?
I'm also hearing quite a lot more mids in the 20XH - as if someone turned up a slider on an equalizer.
Do I perhaps just need to increase the tracking force for a bit more bass...say 2.1 grams?
It seems very strange for a more expensive cartridge to not be able to deliver the same punch, but perhaps something is amiss.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
