What is affected ?


Just a question guys , when you add mass to your tonearm as when using blu tack is the whole frequency spectrum affected or just the low bass resonance frequency as per the mass of the tonearm vs the compliance of the cartridge . Thanks in advance guys for your help .

"If a low compliance cartridge is used with a low mass tonearm, undesirable resonances can occur in the audible range. Mistracking may also be a problem.

When a high compliance cartridge is mated with a moderate mass tonearm, resonances in the infrasonic range may occur in addition to some unwanted high frequency damping. "
