The major cause of problems in sound and skipping on the vinyl is the lack of proper set up of the needle and turntable adjustments. The needle is
designed to operate at a specific angle to the vinyl. The T.90
USB
has several adjustments to correctly position the needle to the vinyl.
The first adjustment is the correct installation of the cartridge.
Your cartridge is to be mounted into the headshell as per the mounting instructions included with the cartridge. The Stanton 500,680 and 890 series of
cartridges require the use of the two screws mounting into the headshell. For your convenience, some of these products can be purchased already
mounted and pre-adjusted from your local Stanton dealer. If you are using these 1/2” mounted products with a headshell in a mobile application or you
are doing heavy scratching, May want to use an extra shell weight. The Master series of products (Track master, Groove master, etc.) are designed with
their own mounting that eliminates the need for a separate headshell and the wiring to the cartridge.
The body of the cartridge should be parallel with the centerline of the headshell-tone arm, when viewed from the front to the back.
The second adjustment is at the installation of the cartridge-head-shell assembly into the tone arm tube lock.
Holding the tone arm tube in one
hand, insert the cartridge-headshell into the tube lock with the other hand. Turn the lock ring clockwise (when viewed from the rear) until the headshell is
locked tightly into the tone arm. Remove the needle protector from the cartridge and place the needle on record. View the needle from the front and insure
that the needle is perpendicular to the record surface. If some adjustment is needed, simply loosen the lock ring and rotate the cartridge-headshell until the
needle is perpendicular to the record surface. Then re-tighten the lock ring.
The third adjustment is the needle (or stylus) pressure.
Start with the cartridge-headshell assembly mounted into the tone arm. Remove any needle
protectors provided. With tone arm free, adjust the tone arm counterweight by rotating the rear section until the tone arm floats in a balanced condition
above the record or mat. Do not allow the needle to drop onto the mat or the turntable platter during this adjustment. You might damage the needle tip.
Now, carefully hold the tone arm in one hand while rotating the numbered ring on the front of the counter-weight with the other hand to the “0” setting. Next,
without touching the numbered ring, Rotate the rear counterweight until the desired needle pressure reading is next to the line on top of the tone arm tube,
see the instructions. Included with your cartridge for proper settings.
