MM Cartridge for VPI Scout

Tzh,
If you think it is vibration, from perhaps possible interaction from speakers, one way to eliminate that possibility, is try the set-up with headphones, or play at a lower spl level.

I've owned a couple of Benz Cartidges, the Glider, and the Ruby 3. Benz Cartidges have generally been known to be very excellent trackers, and also very versatile cartridges, working on virtually every arm without problems.

Stick with it, checking, and eliminating possible causes one by one, I'm sure you'll come out in the end trimumphant. Mark

Not enough info to fully diagnose the problems? We'd all be just guessing at this point.

A MM Cartridge will most likely have even more output, and would help nothing if you are going into the same phono stage without changing anything else.

But I suspect your problem lies elsewhere. Cartridge set up, in regards to alignment, and vertical tracking force will be two important issues you need to check.

If you say you're tracking at 1.9 Grms, are you absolutely sure of this? Has overhang-alignment been properly set?

What phono-stage/pre amp are you running into? What is the gain, and loading set at? Is your Stylus Clean?

Did you just begin to notice this problem, in other words was it playing OK, and now there's a problem, or is this a new set up, and note the problems? Used, or new Cartridge?

Please elaborate some more, and we'll all try to help. Mark
