Product Care & Setup

Analog playback is a system where each component interacts with the others.

Performance depends on the relationship between:

• cartridge compliance and tonearm mass

• phono stage gain and loading

• overall system balance

Careful matching allows the cartridge to perform at its full potential.

If you are uncertain about compatibility, we recommend contacting us before installation.

Moving coil cartridges are highly sensitive electromechanical devices.

During installation:

• ensure precise alignment using an appropriate protractor

• verify correct tracking force according to specifications

• adjust anti-skating carefully

• confirm proper azimuth and vertical tracking angle when possible

Small adjustments can have a significant impact on sound quality.

The stylus and cantilever assembly are extremely delicate.

We recommend:

• avoiding any contact with the stylus tip

• using the stylus guard when handling the cartridge

• lowering the tonearm gently onto the record

• keeping the turntable surface stable and free from vibration

Careful handling preserves both performance and longevity.

The diamond stylus is the point of contact with the record groove and requires regular attention.

For best results:

• keep records clean

• remove dust from the stylus using the provided brush 

• avoid excessive pressure or aggressive cleaning methods

Regular maintenance helps maintain clarity and reduces wear.

Signal integrity is essential in analog playback.

We recommend:

• ensuring secure and clean connections

• avoiding unnecessary adapters or extensions

• keeping signal cables away from power cables and wifi routers where possible

A stable and well-organized connection path contributes to lower noise and improved resolution.

Analog components may require a short break-in period before reaching their full performance.

During initial use, you may notice:

• gradual opening of the soundstage

• improved tonal balance

• increased fluidity and coherence

This is a normal characteristic of precision audio components.

To maintain performance over time:

• keep equipment in a clean and dust-free environment

• protect components from excessive humidity or temperature variation

• periodically check setup parameters such as tracking force

Consistent care ensures long-term musical enjoyment.
