Setting your turntable tracking weight

[@birch272000]

Unless I missed it, let's not forget the most important rule. Make sure you level your turntable before you even start messing with the tonearm. Great video.

This is so much simpler than I expected. Great guide!

[@noreenog11]

Finally directions I could follow. Thank you

[@christopherfox6442]

Awesome how to video James. This reminds me of the days of Tower Records in Hollywood.

[@patrickfiore7067]

Shouldn’t you aim for balancing the tone arm so it’s parallel to the platter?

[@travelexplore1145]

How do balance one that doesn’t have adjust weights, like the cheaper ones. Ive got a lenton 165b but its my first record player i know its a cheap one but is there a way or can u add weights to this to get the correct reading.

[@markadams9880]

I didn't see him put the anti-skate weight back on. Does that change anything related to the tracking force?

[@kfl611]

Very well explained thank you for posting.

[@Jrjop]

A very helpful video, thank you

[@NOONEA2m]

Thanks that was really helpful

[@willygw66]

Great job! But one thing you forgot. The anti-skating method.

[@vinstyles]

thanks a million. Great vid.

[@davidct2406]

Really good. Thank you.

[@backyard992]

Thank you, I was starting to get mad at this thing

That's an "ortiphon red" cartridge, it's range is 1.0-1.8 grams! 2 grams is too high of a setting for that cartridge! Just saying!

[@SoundlineAudioNewZealand]

According to Ortofon tracking force range is 1.6g - 2.0g.

Dude has no idea... Yes floating but parallel.. Getting sick of the new generation trying to make this stuff work... It is simple if you read the manual.

[@Haley.mp2011]

How do you do it if your record doesn't have one of the dials...
