This advice is not specific to the Tri-Planar, and may be only specific to my Ekos/Arkiv(but I don't think so). If the last song of an lp sounds the best, you have too much anti-skate. It's usually just a tiny bit too high. I would not use channel balance, or any other parameter to adjust anti-skate. I did, moving from a very involving sound to one that made me less interested in listening to records.
Tri-Planar with no anti-skate?
On a hunch I removed the AS weight entirely from my new TP 7 (Merrill table & Ortofon Kont H cart).
The sound improved to an astounding degree: tons more body, much more solid imaging.
Certainly, I must not have had the anti-skate optimally adjusted, I am curious if others prefer it this way too.
