Re: How do I tell if an arm is too heavy for a given cart (empirically)? I don't have data for either.

Mount the cartridge in the tonearm and measure the resonance frequency with a test record. The HRNRR test record is not very good for this, but the Shure Audio Obstacle Course V-15 Type V contains accurate resonance measuring frequencies.

Good luck,
