    Beogram 5005, distortion on bass.

    Reply Contact

    Hi, I've recently purchased a Beogram 5005, and I'm getting a lot of distortion on the bass notes.

    Also it seems to stick on one groove occasionally, possibly because of the distortion.  Could this be a sign that I need a new stylus? Or something more serious.  I have checked the pressure and adjusted it to 1.5 but it made no difference.

    Any help or advice appreciated,

    Pete.

    You need a new stylus!

    Thanks Peter,

    Looks like I'll be visiting the Sound-smiths website shortly! Not sure whether to stretch for a smmc3 or stick with the smmc4. Would I hear a big difference between the two.  Can't spend much more than that!

    Pete.

    I would get the SMMC4. Excellent value and I doubt you would notice any difference. I base this however on my comparison of MMC cartridges rather than Soundsmith ones.
