One final restoration note: I replaced the heavy crystal cartridge in the tone arm with a lighter weight dynamic one to reduce the record wear. It’s the only thing that deviates from the original design. To think that records used to be played with what is essentially a nail.

Hi,
How much weight do you put on the needle with the new cartridge?
Doesn’t the amplifier has to change also for the new needle?
Thanks, Marco

The amplifier doesn’t have to change.
