NOTE If you are substituting another cartridge for the Goldring Eroica LX, you may need to make the following further adjustments to the tonearm (9) and cartridge: If you are a novice, music hall recommends getting professional help. All cartridges with half inch mounting holes can be fitted. Leaving the stylus guard on, fit the cartridge to the head shell (21) using the screws supplied with the cartridge by passing one screw through each slot in the finger lift and the head shell (21).
If you have any further questions regarding the adjustment of your turntable, please contact your music hall dealer. Azimuth Adjustment: Azimuth is the angle of the stylus to the record groove. Viewed from head-on, you want the stylus to be perpendicular to the record groove so as to not favor one channel over the other.
