After a long wait for the Audio Technica VM95ML Cartridge I finally am in process of installing it on the untested (sonically) Technics SL1200 mk2 which I recently bought. Ok..I have the cartridge 2 screws mounted & the wires attached. I have positioned the screws mid way in the Technics headshell. First the VT weight for balancing the arm...when I remove the plastic cover protector on needle even at full adjustment the arm is rising and not leveling . First thought is that the cartridge needs to move forward slightly to give more weight for balance . What am I doing wrong here to get it balancing even with the weight fully inwards . Hope you know what I mean here but something seems not correct with my procedure . Yes it´s basic but I don´t get it :
Just thinking but there are 2 sets of fixing screws ...one longer ...it would add extra weight ..just a hunch
Thks for any advice .
