Also check to make sure the stylus assembly is fully "snapped" in. Since this cart has a user replaceable stylus, it might have come loose.
Testing a cartridge
Hi, everyone. I just put together my "new" Empire 698 turntable with a brand new Audio-Technica 120E cartridge. Everything sounded great, when all of a sudden the right channel went dead. I tested the interconnects for continuity, but those are fine. Made sure everything was plugged in properly, and still no sound. Could it be the cartridge? Any way to test it? Any other thoughts on what else I should check? Thanks in advance!
