I set the VTF with the tonearm dial but checked it with the simple Shure balance scale.
I backed off on the bias just slightly and it seems to sound pretty balanced. I think I need to let the cart run in a bit. I've got a Rega Elys 2 cart coming. I thought I would give it a try since it is the recommended cart. I've heard reviews that the low end is slightly bumped so it may be just what I am looking for. If that isn't the solution, I've read the Ortofon 2M Black is a highly detailed cart PLUS a robust low end response.
