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

Blu-tack a nickel on the top of the headshell and re-set your tracking force. Tell us if this results in an improvement which I expect to be the case. A nickel, btw weighs right around 5 g.

Cheers,
