Its all a tradeoff.....years ago I went nuts and applied Marigo dots all over the amp and preamp....absolutely ruined the sound. Re: damping in a tonearm. I had the metal VPI arm which is easily damped by applying oil in its well. 3 drops of fluid ruined the sound space....1 drop of fluid was ok.....I went with no oil at all.
Tonearm microphonics
When I have the volume at my normal level & tap the arm (not whilst playing vinyl) it is slightly amplified... Is it possible to significantly reduce/eliminate this?
Current set up - Roksan Xerxes 20plus, Origin Live Encounter tonearm (thin cork ring at the base) with Lyra Skala.
Apologies if this is a stupid question!
