Rega P25 Tonearm Lift

Here is my stupid question of the day. Hopefully somebody can help. I installed a Grado Sonata cartridge on my P25. Alignment and tracking force are set correctly. My problem is that the height of the cartridge doesn't allow it to clear the LP when using the tonearm lift lever. I have to manually pick the tonearm off the record when done listening. Does anybody know if the lift is adjustable-the manual makes no mention of it. Or-has somebody run into this with there own setup and perhaps developed a 'rig' for it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

David, you're treading some pretty dangerous ground here. I tried to be nice about this. Calling my statements "bull" is not conducive to good rapport with me. Please discuss this in the area of "opinion", as I did. Thank you.

And I have not mentioned this at all since our agreement, even though an old thread on this popped back up again on this page. The post was old, and I cannot remove it.

TWI-You are right.The hum issue should be considered opinion.Its up to each individual to decide if they want to live with a TT/cartridge combo that isnt 100% quiet 100% of the time.

My last post was not directed at you however.
I do respect your opinion Tom and I consider you to be one of the more seasoned audiophiles on this site especially in the analog area.

Im sorry I offended you.
