If you have not removed the VTF adjustment bolt at the end of the arm, try that. It should help a little.
VPI 10.5i counterweights ..umm.. weights
What weight of counterweight should I use for my Lyra Dorian Mono - which only weighs 6.4g ?
At present I have to add a weight to the headshell - which I've never liked doing and am at last taking the time to tidy up - having just bought Soundsmith Counter Intuitives.
My other 10.5i armwand carries a Lyra Skala (9gm) and the counterweight is ideal (ie. as close as possible to the pivot point). Both counterweights are the same. I weigh them on my primitive kitchen balance at just over 110gm. (They need the CI sticky scale width to be trimmed down to 1 - 5).
The lightest counterweight I've seen for sale is 100gm. I somehow doubt that would be light enough to lose the headshell weight - especially when adding the CI collar.
I'd be grateful for any help/advice. Thanks.
