Re: Akito 1 with high vertical resonance

With a high compliance cartridge and a medium mass arm, I would expect resonant frequence to be low, not high. Adding mass to the headshell is easy and should drop the resonant frequency but should not be necessary with your combination.
- Are you running with the brush up or down?
- If it is down, does it move freely?
- Is movement of the arm completely free, or are the bearings binding a little?
- Does the stylus cantilever deflect easily, or is it stiff?
- Do you have any other cartridge you can install a a cross check?
