compliance

I noticed something quite interesting as I acquired more collections of tonearm and carts 

talking about medium compliance first. at tracking force 1.75 to 2.0 carts line contacts  easily tracks and do any condition vinyl without igd. slightly less detailed. 

high compliance 1.25g  to 1.5g line contact gets picky with the quality of vinyl. but when it's great vinyl condition it's great. or it will distort or sometimes mistrack. Epa100 tonearm. 

what do you think. or did I miss something in the high compliance?

Back in the day many high compliance cartridges were spec't to track at 0.75 gm to 1.5 gm. Record wear was more of a problem with the styli they had back then.

Dear @anthonya :  ""  even for sme2 we noticed similar issues ""

as I posted those cartridges needs to be fixed, both are in bad condition.  Do it a favor and dont's play more LPs with those cartridges because you are making an irreversible damages to it.

Both cartridges are very good performers when in good condition unfortunatelly you have a very untrusty sellers.

Btw, who told you that that silicon for the tonearm bearing is really an up-grade?

I did my own work so... almost done. just rewiring left.

ultra smooth and stable now. we will see.

also doing some maintenance on fr 24. anti skate is being installed. it's also a pretty decent for high compliance carts so I read.

once all done I'll check those carts again.
