VTA is adjustable on that model via a hex key on the arm pivot base. If you still need a manual I think I have a copy of it in .pdf form
Project 6.9 set-up information needed...
I have a rather nice - although pedestrian set-up that I need assistance with. I purchased a Rogue Cronus along with a Project 6.9 turntable. I have the local high-fi shop put on a new cartridge for the Project 6.9 in a Grado Blue and set-up the weighting. It has never sounded great but recently it is much less appealing in that it has harsh high and the sound stage is compressed and thin with very little low-end and a pinched mid-range. I use a record brush and my records are cleaned regularly on a nitty-gritty cleaner at the same high-fi shop I had the Project set-up.
The force when set correctly using the float method will not properly track and jumps all over so I must use more force on the stylus than I should in order to open-up what little low-end I can get and the anti-skating seems to be excessive as it pull more than my other tables - although these table were never set-up well and only adjusted by me based on my ear. The VTA is WAY OFF and there appears no way to adjust that as the top of the cartridge is slightly higher than the back and with the gimble on the tone-arm I cannot find a way to adjust that to level the cartridge.
Is there anyone who may have a manual for this table I could borrow or you could scan - I will compensate you for the effort is needed. I would like this to sound much better than it does. I am using the stock preamp in the Rogue Cronus although I do have a Phono Box II that was in use with my B&O Beogram and Nachmachi RE-2.
Thank you in advance - Darren
