Channel frequency range not balanced


One channel coming from the turntable is `brighter` in sound than the other. The `highs` are clearer. I am using SME IV with standard phono cable, and vd Hul retipped Koetsu black. 
After many trials I have concluded that the problem lies somewhere between the RCA plugs and the stylus itself.
All sensible suggestions most appreciated!

If you think it may be the speaker, and you blew a tweeter it may be the resistor in the tweeter signal path. When you mentioned not balanced that is a trait of two resistors not matched if one is damaged. If one of the resistor is not producing the correct ohms you would experience what you described one speaker louder than the other.
