General rule. Lower end of VTF tends to give a brighter, more detailed and slightly lighter presentation. Can mistrack if you go too low. Higher end of tracking force tends toward darker and heavier sound. May vary with cartridge. The same variation tends to occur with VTA with tonearm higher at the back being brighter and lower at the back being duller.
Question on VTF (What should i adjust it to?)
Hi Everyone,
As I continue to proceed down the sinkhole that is Analog Audio. I was checking the specs on the Cartridge and they specify a range of .3g as what is right.
Me being really analytical and obsessed with what is right, where should one start on setting their VTF to? I split the baby in the middle and added .15g to the min and have it had it that way since. But now I am thinking should i move it up or move it down? What should i hear with over and under proper value tracking force?
Thanks as always for the help,
K
