I recently finished setting up my Empire 698 turntable. Everything is working fine, but the stylus appears too close to the record surface. The cartridge is an Empire 400D/III. The head shell and the mount are fine. Is the stylus bad? Sounds great.

Welcome to the AK turn table forum.

Either too much VTF - Verticle Tracking Force is being applied, or the needle suspension has collapsed. :idea:
