Tracking force


 

Hi, i recently bought a Technics Sl-1300 from the original owner. It came with as far as i can determine a Stanton 681 needle/cartridge, the metal body has J8969 on it. just curious of the tracking force for this cartridge and should the anti skating be set the same? Thanks

If this is it then should be .75-1.5g.

I generally keep the anti-skate on my SL-1200 the same as the VTF.

As a rule of thumb, start at 2 grams and decrease it by 0.1 until it stops sounding good.
