Hi Everyone,
I am using an AT12S Shibata cartridge on a Philips 302 turntable with the Marantz CD-4 demodulator. Some album cuts sound good and some are downright excruciating. Is it the cartridge? Obviously this is more noticeable at the inner grooves but improves when increasing the playing weight but then that little plastic bump next to the stylus bottoms out on the record. Increasing the anti skate makes thing worse also.
