Rega P7 + Dynavector DV20X HO

I recently upgraded my P5/Exact combo to a P7/DV20X. The DV cartridge was so heavy that I had to use the stock wt moved to then end of the stub to get the arm to almost balance. With wt at end of stub it allowed a VTF of 1.9g with dial set to zero. I am thinking of adding an aftermarket wt to the mix so I can use the actual VTF gauge and set my VTF to 1.7g. Any recommendations for weight to use.

I have decided to get the Rega heavy weight - a larger version of the tungsten weight. It is best to have the counter weight closer to the pivot point.

You seem to have a good idea - be very careful on your tapping holes on the side. They will need to be exactly 180° opposite of each other or you may induce some skating into the tonearm.
