Fozgometer


I've used this gizmo a few times before and think its a very valuable tool. I'm setting up a new cartridge, and nearing the end of a whole day job...anyway, I'm using the proper test record, yet, the meter doesn't work...I get a dull lights on the 2 red ones, although the middle power light works. Any suggestions?

Have you tried connecting the meter to the output of the phonostage or the preamp? A lot of cartridges don't have enough output for the meter to work straight off the cartridge.
Yes...it is a new Ortofon that was manufactured with internal improper connections. Thanks
I think is a calibration issue. There is a way to calibrate the device, I used to have one light on even when not connected to a TT. What I don't remember is where the company explain how to do it. Try to contact the manufacturer.
Thanks Jorsan....I used it a few months ago to set up a Benz LPS and it worked fine. The brand new Ortofon was internally wired incorrectly. The leads I installed match the color of the pins, and itself matched the illustration on the enclosed brochure. Although the cartridge was not completely set up, I listened and discovered that the right channel was coming from the left and v/v. I've sent the cartridge back to Ortofon, and will post when I get another.
Even more unacceptable when you realize the distributor has raised the price to $300.
