What is your cartridge and tracking force used


Share your actual setup or numerous setup you liked.

Actual for me: Grado Reference Platinum with recommended 1.5g (from .75 to 2) tracking force. Im still trying to find the best one but im always coming back to 1.5.

Thanks

Dear Sonofjim/Thomasheisig: I would like that you can share your experiences on your beloved cartridges, example:

Sonofjim, what changes in quality cartridge performance do you hear in your LP with a 1.93 and 1.95 grs against 1.94 grs ? do you check the VTA/SRA/overhang set-up with either VTF change?

Thomasheisig, could you tell us about in your Shelter 90X?: 1.89-1.91grs against 1.90grs.

Thank you in advance.

Regards and enjoy the music.
Raul.
Raul,
I haven't experimented with all those tiny increments in VTF. I use a digital scale that reads to the hundredth of a gram so I report what the readout says but I'm not sure how important hundredths of a gram are. I do have the other parameters you mention dialed in to the best of my ability. I try to get VTF into a pre-determined range(for the LP I wanted between 1.9 and 2 gms)as I'm setting everything else. Once it's sounding good I tend not to mess with it.
ZYX universe 1.7; i have ventured lower but mistracking can be an issue. Followed DougDeacon technique for universe and believe it sounds better on my system at this vtf and optimized vta.
