Torture test for a TT rig!


I have less than 200 hours on my Miyajima Shalabi. Triplanar arm, Woodsong Garrard 301.
I am actually hoping that it is a compliance mismatch cart and arm.
Just playing 1812 Overture on the cannons the arm jumped off the record and the sound stopped for an instant!
Sure seems like the cart is not tracking.
At least I now have a torture test!
And I am getting “clipping-like” distortion. Especially on the fuller tones of a singer.
Cartridge/Arm mismatch? Is compliance the only or main issue?
My VTA is right.

@rauliruegas , I assumed the OP was using the correct VTF, bad assumption. Non the less a stiff cartridge in an arm that is too light will pop right out of the groove when the right note comes along. Years ago I made exactly that mistake. The OPs tracking is much better given the added 0.7 grams but that does not mean his arm is set up correctly. The Hi FI News Analog Test Record has excellent resonance tracks. These are not the tracks used for tracking ability or anti skating adjustment. Everyone who wants the best bass performance out of their set up needs to get the vertical resonance frequency down between 8 and 10 Hz. As you add more mass to the tonearm the resonance frequency will drop. Soundsmith's graded screws are a wonderful way to do this. The OP will find that with anti skate and resonance frequencies set correctly he will get even better performance. If you disagree with this paragraph then I am afraid there is no hope for you. Sincerely, Me
Nice that increasing the tracking pressure solved it :)

This is entire off topic, but that cartridge is pretty low compliance, suggesting that its designed for a high mass arm. Perhaps the Fidelity Research? Its nice that the Triplanar will work with it regardless.
Dear @mijostyn :  Can you read? because I posted:

""  I posted all those not to open a new thread window. ""


 As always you are baised with your way of thinking and no other " thing " coming from other persons are not good for you and  not even give its importance .

"   I am afraid there is no hope for you. "

Sorry but It's the other way around. Problem with you is that just  do not make your " home work " :

""  I assumed the OP was using the correct VTF, bad assumption. ""

So go with the OP and tell him that change his arm for one with 40grs. of EM or that add 30grs. at the headshell position .

Btw, the OP is waiting for the top of the line Lyra cartridge.

You are not stupid ( as other two persons that posted here. ) so you can learn, there is always hope for you. Sincerely, Me.

Dear @mglik  : Are you using the tonearm tray silicon damping?

Btw, when will arrives the Lyra cartridge?
