    Pioneer PL-530 Additional Counterweight DYI options?

    Cartridge I have on my PL-530 (AT OC9/ii) is a bit heavy and I have to put the main counterweight pretty much all the way back - which I think is causing issues with the tonearm start position being all over the place (never had this issue with other lighter carts and turning the positioning...

    Hi all, I have a problem with distortion playing lps. Turntable is a Dual cs5000 with a vintage Shure V15 iii cart, Jico HE stylus. I tried the amplifier with another turntable and there was no problem, so it's not the phono stage. The distortion almost sounds like there's a glob of dust on the...
