I got an Audio Technica cartridge and stylus set up from Ed Saunders. Things are a bit temperamental.
I adjusted the separation and carrier levels of my QRX 7001 with the help of a Sylvania CD-4 set up demo record and form what I've been reading here. The records I noticed, each have their own characteristics. But here is what my particular problem seems to be.
OK, don't chuckle. My turnatable is a Craig 5001, belt drive with an "S" shaped tone arm. The records play fine at the beginning but the CD-4 light starts to flicker at past mid-point in play. If I increase the carrier level it helps but also hinders in that it adds distortion and splatter in the vocals, especially in the "s" sounds.
Is there one turntable that tends to work better than others? I'm tending to believe the problem may be in my behemoth, yet old faithful Craig. Perhaps I need an alignment tool?
Before I guess too much, I'll await feedback from my learned colleagues. Thanks, Murph
