Adding weight to counterweight, how to set vtf?
Hello everyone,
I recently upgraded my cartridge from the stock ortofon om5e on my project debut iii to a 2m red, which weighs 2g more. I didnt buy the heavier cw, but rather added weight to the standard cw via a thick rubber washer. So, when setting vtf, am I right in assuming that the weight numbered ring will not be accurate if Ive added weight to the cw and I therefore have to use a scale to set it? Is there any reson not to use an electronic scale such as those sold for jewelry with a metalic tray? The magnet inside the cartridge shouldnt affect the reading much, or will it? Thanks.
