Default Tracking force

Well, what was a serious question seems to have been hijacked by a
load of kids winding each other up at the back of the class - not what
I expected here - grow up everybody, its not big or clever.

Anyway:

I've got a Rega P3 with an Elys cartridge. I thought it sounded a bit
dull, so tried backing the weight off a little with a positive result
(Ithink). I don't want to ruin the cartridge basically - Rega
recommend a tracking weight of 1.75g, I've got it set at 1.25g, after
initially balancing the arm as best I can. What do you guys think?

Playing through NAD PP2 / C350 by the way.

(Please don't start swearing and winding each other up again over
this).

What difference to sound will over / under weighting a record deck
cartridge make?

Too little will result is mistracking, which may sound like a
buzzing distortion. Too much will push the coils in the cartridge
out of its linear range, and compress the suspension leading to
assorted problems, maybe a dull muted sound.

Yes, yes either all of this or you STUPID ****S could quit wasting
your money and buy SACDs!

Just trying to help my 'mates back in the homeland!

I must comment here.


You just want someone to listen while your wife shags the neighbor.


That's gotta be better than my neighbour shagging my sheep.

I've been finding this ****wit's **** poor attempts at trolling
hysterical.

The poor ******* can't get a bite from anyone.


You did [ and have in the past;-) ].


Not a bite, just an observation on just how loust you are at this.

Come on folks, give some thought to this poor tosser's needs. He's
obviously needs attention but no-one will take the bait.

My hilarity is only tempered by my guilt.


Perhaps your guilt comes from a large part of your time on silliness.


My large part would be dealing with your missus, if you had one you
could keep.

Just thought I'd help out!;-))


Why thank you. I know the very way. Try ****ing off, that's work great.
So kind of you.
