VPI Cuing arm falling too fast


I noticed tonight my Primes cuing arm doesn’t drop slowly anymore.

Anybody know a fix or how to trouble shoot?

Obviously, you’re an instigator at heart. Hopefully, this behaviour will change. We’d all love more positive thoughts/comment here. Hopefully you’ll grow up and become a more sincere/productive forum member.

I would have hoped the best solution you posted would have been VPI’s solution at the time I was dealing with it.

I guess 1 more call to VPI is in order...again.

(None of this was ever funny to me.), although I do find it (odd) that suddenly @stringreen (now has time), not only to post a solution but in addition, to freely accept anyone’s emails for his/her help. I’ll just say that is very interesting.

One of @stringeen’s suggestions for a fix is "lowering the arm". Does anyone besides me see what’s wrong with that picture? If not, it messes up one’s previous painstaking cartridge set-up, at the least.........
I’ve had issues with my cueing devices as well. My issue was it wouldn’t raise high enough. VPI sent another one, supposedly new, and it had the same issue. Their "fix" is to send out 1/8" high dots to apply to the curved arm rest part. Not the best "fix" IMO.

@stringreen

Not busy enough to post a forum that supposedly has a fix but too busy to type 3 words...........also, Audiogon is my choice for "search and find" as you mentioned.
