According to the review in Stereophile on the VPI - the reviewer and VPI maker suggested adding a little more tracking force than normal. This shoul help, but the VPI isn't the best at tracking difficult records anyway. It's not bad. It tracks on almost all of my records including the 1812 cannon shots. I wouldn't worry about it. I mean how many cannon shots do you have recorded? It should play almost anything else. Just add a little more force than suggested and according to Art Duddley it shouldn't hurt the records or cartridge.
