Cartridge Tracking Force


Does a cartride tracking force over 2 grams cause any damage to our precious vinyl records. I am interest in upgrading to a better cartridge and most of the ones I am interested in track at 2 grams or higher for optimum sonic results.

Agree with above. My DL103 tracks well at 2.75 grams. Just about every cartridge I've ever owned tracks at over 2 grams.
...believe it or not i was always placing the cartridge tracking force without any gauge to measure by the stylus tracking angle.
i now decided to buy the tracking force gauge and set up finally the cartridge tracking force in the appropriate range as instructed and did not get positive results.
my initially set tracking force of >2 grams was better performer than the one set with the gauge 1.5 grams -- what a waiste of bucks.

...forgot to mention that the cartridge was relatively brand-new (only 2 hours of playing) after i've acquired tracking force gauge.
and after all i'm still above arround 0.2...0.3grams above the upper suggested limit.
