Karelfd,
obtain a Frequency test LP if you do not have one. Play the frequencies at 1Khz first. measure the voltage output from your phono stage or pre amp tape outputs.
Then start playing lower frequency tones and measure the voltage for each. If you are hearing a true drop off in freaq. response, and can confirm it with the voltage meas. then you either have a cart, that is not broken in yet, has a poor low freq. response, or need to tweek the RIAA circuit, to increase the gain where the drop off happens.
Make sure you keep the same time contant by changing out equiv. cap and resistor values.
