I have read Peter Lederman's comments on AS and stylus inspections he has done and also understand that skating force is real. So I go with a little goes a long way. I typically use around 1/3 of the tracking force for AS force setting. It does seem that I can hear when it is right.
Tonearms without anti-skate, damage to records?
I am picking up a pivoted tonearm without any provision for bias (anti-skate) force. I would appreciate opinons on if using this arm can damage my records or phono cartridge due to the lack of this feature. Thanks.
