invest in a digital scale to set the tracking force so there's no guesswork. VTF is critical to sound and preserving your stylus and records. VTA can be set and tweaked by ear.
Setting up the cartridge--Tips/techniques
Thanks for the feedback on cartridges for my Michell Gyro. I decided on the van den hul frog. It was not one of the ones i recieved feedback but I recently heard one in action and was pretty impressed. I am looking for some advice on how to set it up properly to get maximum performance from the set up. I have a couple of questions
1. Is the use of a stylus force gauge/scale critical or can I use the scale on the arm and tweak based on performance?
2. What position should I adjust the arm height to get maximum performance and avoid cartridge damage or record damage.
3. Are there other key points or techniques to consider
Thanks
