RE: Anti-skate help needed please!

I wonder if your new stylus is damaged in such a way that it digs into the groove with excessive friction that in turn causes excessive skating force. I would recommend checking your stylus under a microscope to make sure it isn't broken or damaged. The problem might also be the result of a weakened suspension, but if that were the case, I would think the cartridge body would be dragging on the LP as in a collapsed suspension.

I believe that antiskating is very important and should be adjusted properly, but I don't think your arm and cartridge should behave as you describe even without using antiskating.

I hope you find the problem and, more importantly, the solution.

Best regards,
John Elison
