Update: I was trying to set the tracking force to see if that would fix the tracking problem. While doing this I noticed that I get inconsistent readings on the downforce. Without changing anything the readings range from 1.8 to 2.5 and while the stylus is on the gauge the downforce doesn't hold at a consistent weight. I'm betting that whatever is causing this is also causing the tracking problem.
Problem Setting Up ClearAudio Concept
Hey,
I'm somewhat new to setting up turntables (I've only set one other table up before). I'm having two problems. 1) The tonearm lift appears to be too low so even when raised the tonearm hits the record before the lift. 2) The tonearm is not tracking laterally. This second problem is obviously a bigger deal cause it makes the turntable unusable. Does anyone know what I might have set up incorrectly?
Thanks for your time!
Michael
