Mofi et al, Don't those designations for the Moerch arm wands (in grams) refer to the tonearm effective mass, rather than to the weight of the cartridge that is to be used with that particular arm wand? It makes a difference which.
Which wand for Morch DP-6
Greetings All
I have a Morch DP-6 with a ZYX 3 Airy sliver base.
I have been using the Red Dot wand with the cartridge.
The cartridge has worked very well in this wand except that when it plays a very deep note I get distortion. The one LP that the cartridge has never tracked properly is the very low bass note from Ray Browns LP "Soular Energy"
I sent the cartridge to Soundsmith to have it evaluated (the cartridge is over 4 year old and lots of time on it)
Peter at Soundsmith said that it is worn evenly, but is 70% worn out. He recommend that I replace the Styles only with his best diamond.
My question
Am I using the wrong wand with this cartridge?
Thanks
Bryan
