Vocals sound slightly high pitched?


This happens with all the records I've played so far. My turntable's set to the right speed (I know because when I flick the speed switchn to the other setting, it sounds chip-munky and twice as fast). At the moment, the vocals are slightly high pitched (noticeably but not unbearably). Is this just something that'll go away as my cartridge breaks in or is there something wrong with my setup? Thanks.

I don't know about your TT. Does the platter have strobe markings? If not you will need a test disc with the 33 and 45RPM markings. Add to that one flourescent light (portable or battery operated one) and you be able to get the job done.
Most likely VTA. Try dropping the tone arm a tad from horizontal (assuming that is where its at) in the rear. Nlot much a mm or 2 could do it.
