Has any of you tried this for Cartridge break in


I unfortunately broke off the stylus of my cartridge. Mr Mehran has another on the way. My question is using a LP like On the Threshold of a Dream that has endless grooves at the end with music a good choice. I am going to try a ATMOS in place of my UNIverse on trial. Its going to be new and i want to get as much time on it as possible before i have to make a decision. Has any of you used this method for cartridge break in.
Also if any of you are using ATMOS let me no your thoughts.

I know most will want to know how this happened. For evacuation for Gustav i brought all of my system except my speakers. When we got back after a major cleanup i started putting my system back together. The turntable was last as its the most work. I had my Tri planar boxed with UNIverse still mounted. I installed the arm and noticed that the mono filament string that adjusts skating was off. Finding and replacing it i forgot to lock the arm down and the rest is history.

Sorry for your bad luck on the cartridge.
Hopefully you had no storm damage.
I would take such an accident as a sign from the ether.
Play records and not try to accelerate break in.
Too much risk.
ZYX sounds great out of the box.
I enjoy hearing such a fine device break in and evolve.
Best of luck.
Hey Stltrains, that ZYX/Evans G+SRX is certainly a great combo! I love mine.

Best of luck.
