Any idea how many plays would begin to show wear?
I used the MFSL Geo-Disc for setup guide. I am using 2grams tracking weight. I think Grado actually recommends 1.75 grams but I think an extra 1/4 gram is prudent.
I have a HIFI News and Record Review test LP that I will experiement with soon.
Not looking forward to the hassle of reinstalling and aligning cartridge if I don't need to. Last time I did it it took me hours and was a pain in the ass...
But it would be nice to be certain the stylus is good. Seems impossible to do this while mounted though...
