Most likely, the damper needs to be replaced, and in the worst case, when there was a blow to the cantilever, the deformed steel wire needs to be replaced. These works themselves are much more complicated than simply replacing a diamond.That's a great question. This is a "diamond-only retip."
Good catch. Have you seen this issue before?Where on the graph can I see -2.5 dB on the red line?
Yes, that was a typo.110kohm??
a mc...110ohm?
By what signs do we see this? Such channel imbalance may be due to poorly aligned coils if there was an impact on the cantilever. Without a visual inspection of the contact surfaces of the stylus, there is no certainty about its condition.
- But here we clearly see that it is completely spent
The distortion. An Audio-Technica cartridge like this would not break the -20 dB threshold without wear. See this explanation I have posted along with examples and photographic evidence. I am still working on it and welcome feedback and critique. But I have posted numerous times about this throughout the years as I have measured known worn cartridges and am comfortable making such a call and relying on measurements to "see" wear. In fact I deliberately seek out and measure every possible problem in order for us to learn more about measurements. On queue for tomorrow is another measurement that I have personally taken of heavy wear that includes a picture of the wear. (It has been posted several times before but it was not processed with the latest version of the script.)By what signs do we see this?

It wasn't a criticism, just a question. I use machine translation, so my speech may seem rude, please don't mind.The distortion.

But it seems to me that in this case we have a cartridge with a mechanical problem. Is 15dB separation at 1kHz normal for the CBS-100?
And a very strange graph from AT itself. According to this graph, the separation is 23 dB at 1 kHz, and on their website they claim more than 30 dB. How do we even understand this?
This was a question about the plot that AT presented.What's wrong with him? The paper on which it is printed is universal for different meanings.
that these dates are of no interest because the brands have the same difficulties as the participants in the discussions here..... linked to the records they have...
(remade-standardized disks with specific test should be available for all manufacturers)
