ADD TO CART ERROR? Note that this product is asking you to click the black or silver headshell color AND the needle you want with your cartridge BEFORE adding this item to the cart.
Note that the cartridge arrives mounted to the headshell 'well-enough' aligned but not
custom precision-aligned to your specific turntable. This means that in most
cases it will work out of the box but the more discerning ear will
likely want to do some additional alignment.

How do I adjust tracking pressure and anti skate?
If
you are lucky enough to have these two adjustments, move tracking force
counter weight until the needle hovers perfectly balanced above the
record. Now rotate the dial with numbers (not the weight itself) to
zero. (this is zero grams pressure on record) then rotate weight AND
numbers together to the recommended tracking pressure for your needle.
Then rotate anti skate to have a setting of equal value. Basically you
want the least amount of needle pressure pushing down on the record as
possible without it skipping or sounding bad. That will give you the
longest life from your needle and records.
NOTE: Anti skate is
adjusting side to side pressure WITHIN GROOVE of record. Tracking
pressure is how hard the needle is pushing down inside the groove. 
If your tonearm has a height-adjustable base, make sure the arm is parallel with the record surface.

Great product and service. I placed my order in the evening and it shipped within an hour... amazing. I installed it, balanced my tonearm, and was playing music in a matter of minutes. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a solid performing cartridge at an affordable price. |

I plugged it in, adjusted the force with the Ortofon stylus force gauge and started playing. Great to hear dad's 30 year old Technics SL-220 up and spinning after a few years of sitting in the basement. |
