Alright. What would be some common signs of when the stylus is on its last legs?
I've already ordered the parts for a bugle phono preamp and a replacement belt.
I've got the hunt eda brush, inner sleeves and the shure force gauge in my shopping cart at TTVJ. Anything else I'm missing? I'm planning on using the alignment tool I found online (link in previous post) assuming it'll work. Should I get a bubble level and will any one work?
I just realized that I've completely hijacked this thread.
Although I suppose it still fits under the title.

The suggestion that you get both styli looked at is still a good one but I can assure you that the styli still have some mileage to go before they become harmful or worthless. In addition, all the other recommendations are right on. A good stylus force gauge, replacement inner sleeves and a nice record brush are very worthwhile investments. The Hunt EDA brush is another record brush worth getting. Plus the tonearm has a finger lift. |
