Rega RP3 Bias/Anti-Skate

Also try no Anti-skate at all.... you may very well like that the best.

I've adjusted the VTF with a Shure scale and got the Ortofon Salsa dialed in at its supposed best tracking force of 2.2 grams so I'm confident of that setting, but I imagine that's assuming a lot.

I'll try easing up on bias and see what kind of difference that makes.

I'm using zero antiskate on my RP6 after adjusting it on the fly. That eliminated all inner groove distortion I was getting on some records.

You can adjust antiskate on the fly with no problem (unless you #$%# it up, LOL!)

Many Rega owners bypass the spring-loaded VTF mechanism on their tonearms by setting the tracking force dial to minimum and then using the counterweight's position to set VTF. No matter what, I would use a good scale rather than rely on the arm's VTF numbers.
