I bought an Ortofon OM10 Cartridge for my Pioneer PL-518. I installed it and balanced it[seemed overly hard to do] and tried it out. It was awful! It skipped and the sound would come and go in both channels. It would hardly track the record. It acted like the table may be off balance[but it is not]. I balanced the tonearm again but the same thing happened. I checked the wires and all was O.K. with them. I decided to try it on my Yamaha YP-B2 and it worked perfect! Great tracking and great sound! I took my headshell and cartridge from my Yamaha and put it on the Pioneer and it played just great. Does anyone have any ideas?
