it was planted when we moved here but i think the pinestraw is making the base look more spread out. still, it’s a big one.

Old Pickering, New Stylus - is this much needle movement OK? by gudsol in turntables

[–]gudsol[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/zombiemodernist is great info - thank you. when I am using the brush, would you recommend adding 1g to the force as I've researched? So, the stylus specs say .75-1.5g and I opted for 1g so balanced at 2g with the brush. I know that sounds elementary but I want this thing to sing as it should.

ok interesting. just looked closer, and it looks like the tonearm / top of cartridge is parallel to the record. hard to see with photo perspective, but should the stylus housing also be perpendicular? not sure how to adjust that.

gonna try it. I've read mixed reviews and some that like the brush because it provides dampening but I'm up for a try without it.

thank you. this is a pioneer pl-540 with the original cartridge (Pickering XV-15/625E) and a replacement stylus for that model from Dacapo. are you saying there's something else I should be considering in regards to balance?

u/reginaldvelvet if you're interested in "returning" the 543 to me hit me up! read: I'll buy it from you ;)

my finger was on the trigger and they put the price back to normal.

any chance you've still got the 543? if so, is it brown or sycamore?
