SME V and cartridge spacer


Using a Kiseki Purple Heart cartridge, my SME V tonearm occasionally faults on the edge of records so I purchased a spacer from SME. For those who have used this spacer, after accounting for it's added weight during set up, 3 gms, does it effect the sound in any way? 
Thanks...........Jim

One more thing, this fauling happens when the arm is set LEVEL and correct tracking force is applied. 
justmetoo has it right. My Kiseki cartrige tip to mounting platform doesn’t have enough depth, similar to Koetsu’s and the SME V arm. The arm faults ( touches the record rim) when the cartridge is the playing inner tracks and when the vinyl isn’t perfectly flat. It doesn’t help that in my system, the Kiseki sounds best with the VTA somewhat down in back. The spacer I purchased came from SME, I believe is made of aluminum.
And for those cynics above.... yes many things will have some, though maybe small, effect on a system’s sound, especially in a sensitive area like phono pickup.
"Most audiophiles don’t know what they hear." Really? Maybe you don’t, but that is a pretty general statement. Sound’s a lot like "all speaker cables sound the same and make no audible difference what so ever" BS.......
Ultimately I will make a determination in my system with my ears , but I was just looking for other’s experiences in using a spacer.
Hi Jim, I'd be still interested if you could mention the spacers weight, if you'd have e.g. a VTF scale/gauge. 
I my case, a 0.66 gram addition to 5 gram cartridge weight is not to my ears changing the sound negatively on the SME V's 10.5 gram arm mass at all.
Rather helpful it is in this case, as the balance weight is a little less cramped right up to the front, toward the arm bearings. 
Depending on the cartridge's compliancy (cu) it might even be better (or not?) regards the change of the resonance frequency. 
Some would say its immaterial depending on your tt set-up and placement, regards foot fall or seriouly warped vinyl etc. 
This just to have mentioned, to calm down some audio-nervosa cases' comments. 😉

Having had a similar issue as you (OP) mentioned, with my Ortofon M20FL Super cartridge

@justmetoo Nice MM cartridge, i have NOS D20FL stylus for it (in original box), this is it, sadly i can’t find the cartridge body for it, maybe you need that NOS stylus ? Just in case.
