Man Suits Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 My birthday is this Wednesday and my parents went in with me on a new Debut Carbon. So far I love it. But I'm having some issues with the anti-skate that I need some opinions on. The tonearm: when I place it above the record it slowly starts to move towards the rest. When I lower it onto the record it speeds up a little bit before it touches vinyl. While it causes no real issues it's really annoying. I've thrown around the idea of doing away with the anti-skate weight altogether. How necessary is it? Is it just like a piece of mind dangling from a hook? Any help will be greatly appreciated. EDIT: I have the weight on the 2nd grove. The first grove does the same thing as the second also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man Suits Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 FIXED: I actually seem to have stumbled upon something that fixed the tonearm from slowly floating back to the rest. Someone told me to use a pencil eraser on the rubber part of the tonearm lift to give it traction. Seems to have stopped it quite well. So actually in retrospect this post was pointless. Oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
