How to test your tone arm bearings

 How to test your tone arm bearings

1)    Install stylus guard!
2)    Adjust counterweight for ZERO force (arm floats horizontally – does not rise or fall
3)    Turn anti-skating to ZERO

NOW – set arm in middle or stationary record or platter. It should NOT swing laterally. CERTAINLY not fast. If is DOES, your anti-skating is BROKEN.

They Said What?

All were tested via recording with the Creative X-Fi and by listening thru AKG 701s, AKG K550, Beyerdynamic 990 Pro, and finally with Fostex Full Ranges in DIY cabinets.  So how did they rank?
