Thanks, since I am new to vinyl, how important is the pressure of the stylus on the record >> grams and what is a typical gram wt to apply?
I would like to upgrade from Sumiko MMT tonearm
I inherited a sota star sapphire turntable and sumiko mmt tonearm and grado reference ( the cartridge does not have wood sides?)cartridge. The sound is good but not great on old rock albums albeit with many scratches. Jazz does sound much better. Can someone recommend a better tonearm/cartridge combo that won't break the bank?? Or should I just buy some higher quality Vinyl ??
