just recenty started dipping my toes into vinyl again, but didnt want to spend much ,just in case my curioisty over the format wears thin, so
picked up a rather nice used technics sl1300 for £70, had trouble finding a new stylus for the shure V15 , so though what the hell, I will stick a cheapo AT95e cart on there for the time being, , while it sounds reasonably nice, that full warm sound is not really there, the sound how I used to remember my old garrard/goldring combo
now I was told the fullness will deveop over time as the needle loosens up , been using it for a week about an hour a day and cant say I have noticed an increase in bass, am I expecting too much from this little green thing, many say it performs way ahead of it price, sounds a tad flat ATM, increasing the bass on the amp helps a bit , but should be no need for that surely? or is the phono stage in the yamaha AS500 lacking?
