Someone asked:

By the way, in which direction is it skipping? Forward or backward?

Max Metral topposted:

Forward, and in kind of an "odd" manner, it doesn't really make a
traditional "skip" noise, it just jumps a few grooves forward, almost as if
the inward force just simply overcame the tracking force.

Is there an antiskaating adjustment, and is it correctly adjusted?

There is not much audio production about this, so I added a cross-post
to rec.audio.tech and a FUT pointing thataway ...


Kind regards

Thanks for the cross post, the antiskate on this tonearm is apparently not
functional according to the tech that replaced it. They also said it was
extremely unlikely that this skipping is caused by the antiskate issue, but
it certainly could be as that's really what it looks like.

Perhaps it's time for a new tonearm, anybody got good reco's for a TD125
that I've already put too much into?

Thanks for the cross post,

It is just that it is plain a lot easier to find a post here .... O;-)

[da skipæing problem]

TD126 ... TD125! .. the one with super soft chassis suspenbsion that is
very poorly damped? .... you may not have a cartridge/tonearm issue, at
least not a *major* one, but instead an issue of VLF vibrsations, such
as step noise. I am not certain that I remember this correctly, but I
think the suspension springs are undamped. IF so, mind you IF, then it
may, just may, be an idea to stuff them with a small piece of foam
rubber.

It is generally a sane concept to have a grammophone on a shelf on a
wall rather than on an item of furniture that stands on the floor. A
stone or concrete slab on a soft/vibration isolated mount may be a good
way of obtaining even better decoupling.

Perhaps other people here can comment on the properties of the TD125?


Kind regards
