My Dynavector 10x5 sits too low on the record


My Dynavector 10x5 sits a little too low on the record surface as it glides through the grooves. The tracking force is set at 2.0g which is right in between the recommended range. The stylus does not wobble or anything and it looks to be secured, not loose. Is this normal? I bought this cartridge used from an honest seller who told me he’s only played 10 records on the cartridge. I haven’t really noticed how low the cartridge sits on the records until recently. Does the 10x5 stylus really bend up that much as you lower it onto the vinyl surface? Any input would be appreciated.

I have the Exact set up & cartridge and will gladly verify when I get home this evening. From what you stated and from what I have read your stylus is not correct if it's near the postion you quoted.

Yes, 3 business cards is a bit low, but if Valleyplastic responds that his 10X5 is 5 business cards off the deck, then I'd call this within the range of manufacturing tolerance and not worry - as long as you don't scrape and the cartridge sounds good.

I've seen differing samples of the XV-1s ride higher than others, and all of them have wonderful sonics. This is likely due to a linear magnetic structure vis a vis location in the gap.

OK, I have to agree with Thom and also Kitch29 as being low riders. You have 3 business cards and I would say mine is a good 5. If I had to put a dimension on it I would call it 3/32" of a inch or .100
I have to believe you are good to go, maybe a tad on the low side but I think as Thom mentioned it's likely within tolerance.
