Cartridge Setup?


Hello, I have a Music Hall MMF5.1 set up which I enjoyed very much... Two days ago, I upgraded the Goldring cartridge to a Sumiko Bluepoint 2... I had the dealer install it, but I am not sure if they installed it right as they were just a couple of kids... Now I have a lot more surface noise I didn't have before, and more importantly, I get a loud static pop every few seconds... Can a improperly intalled cartridge cause these pops? Thanks.

Ekobesky is correct, although I would call that Blue Point a backwards move. The Blue Points pick up way too much surface noise, move to something like a Dynavector 10x5, there are many choices that are better than the Blue Point.
