    Cantilever not parallel with cartridge body

    Hey guys. I had my Koetsu cartridge cleaned up and re-tipped. Things looked and sounded fine when I went to pick it up from the shop that fixed it. After looking at things more closely when I got home though, I noticed that the cantilever appears to be askew from the cartridge body itself...

    Stylus with an angle greater than 100°

    AT-VM95ML SRA and Compliance Qs

    I recently bought an AT-VM95ML mainly to improve my inner groove distortion that I found present on brand new records with my previous elliptical (Clearaudio Concept MM v1). I aligned it in Lofgren A, and it has done that job very well, so overall I'm happy. Now that I have my setup in a better...

    Soundsmith, I broke the cantilever on my Denon Zu 103. :(

    Hi all, it took next to nothing to break the cantilever from my Denon Zu 103. There is was, just lying beneath the cartridge... On the upside (desperate for a silver lining here), I bought this DL-103 Zu (not 103R), after it had been retipped at Soundsmith by a previous owner, and he chose the...
