RE: I'm not using the anti-skate.

I am no expert on such things, but I know this; Peter Lederman is one smart guy and on top of that, he knows about such things as antiskate. His take; it is critical. He has his own method that now comes printed out with each retip-carefully drop the stylus between two lead-out grooves and in the one to two seconds or so that you have to observe before the stylus inevitably falls into the groove, watch for the tonearm/cartridge to gently glide inwards. What I learned with my Prime using his method is that the wire twist alone is not sufficient for optimum AS. You need to use either both the wire twist and counterweight or just the counterweight. One of the regulars here used to take a jab or three at VPI for being so slow to offer an AS counterweight on it's tables and continuing to espouse the unnecessary nature of AS. I now sympathize with that person's viewpoint.
