Dynavector has a re-build service for Karat as long as it was purchased from an authorized dealer. Check with a Dynavector dealer. The rebuild includes tip, cantilever and suspension.
Cat jumped on turntable
OK, I know the obvious response about this but moving past ditching the cat . . . I was playing my VPI Scout 'table with a Dynavector Karat cartridge when the cat (Jack) leaped onto the 'table. The tone arm slide across the record and the platter stopped. After addressing the situation, I didn't see any obvious problems (but I have an untrained eye) and dropped the needle. The tone arm immediately slide across the record to the center. Upon reflection, it seemed like the tone arm was light since it moved pretty effortlessly. Before taking it, I thought I would solicit some thoughts here.

Hope it works out for you.A few years back I had drifted off in the chair after a late evening of house shattering volume and the odd beverage, with the Rega 3 gently making put-put sounds as the needle moved over the end of an LP. One of our kittens then climbed the rack and stepped on the turntable knocking the arm over the side resulting in a massively loud bang bang bang propelling me three foot up in the air and stage 1 heart failure. |
