In Reply to: Re: No, this is not the Grado sound... posted by HenryH on February 11, 2005 at 04:25:01:
The infamous Grado "dance" is caused by a tonearm and cartridge mis-match. Basically the resonance frequency and mass of the tonearm are in the wrong range for the Grado's cantilever's suspension compliance. You can mitigate the problem through playing with VTF, anti-skate, and even VTA; but ultimately the best solution is to move on and either use a different arm or cartridge. Grado's do sound "dark" when this mismatch is present. There is no real remedy that would do the Grado any justice.Good luck,
Ray
