stringreen If you hear a bit of mistraking add a tiny more VTF. (you can do that by slightly lowering the tail end).Are you confusing VTF with VTA? Lowering the arm with reduce either one, so I think you're mistaken. |
Thanks for all the input. It sounds perfectly fine to me...no mistracking, no imbalance in the channels, no distortion that I've noticed. But I should do some comparison listening tests in highly-modulated tracks using one of my other turntables, and see if I notice distortion in the left channel. The Grace 704/714 tonearms did not come with anti-skate, so no parts are missing. They are low-mass arms (6g from what I've researched), and stock pictures of them had F9s mounted, so I really think they are meant for high-compliance cartridges. @viridian Where did you see that they were designed for low-compliance? @cleeds I saw as well how older VPI arms did not have anti-skate, and were also uni-pivots. But Lederman notes in his anti-skate article (on SoundSmith's website) that VPI eventually added AS adjustment, probably at the behest of users. |
