Ohlala, Right! It is dual purpose, thank goodness the sonics did not require the fitting of a fluorescent bulb, as the light from them is not near as pretty. ( Not to mention the noise they radiate ).
What temperature is your cartridge?????
When I worked at Adcom on the Crosscoil high output moving coil we discovered that we had to measure frequency response and tracking at a particular temperature. If it was warmer the cartridge ( ALL CARTRIDGES) tracked better and were brighter and on a cold New Jersey morning they sounded dull and wouldn't track for beans. Install a lamp next to your turntable and small themometer. Never go below 72 degree F. You can literall fine tune a cartridge by heating it up or cooling it down. It has to do with the compliance of the rubber used in mounting the armature.
