Johnnantais, Do you mean the Shure stylus assembly is held rigidly bound in position with the glue, but the glue contact points can be broken by simple pulling away from the cartridge body when it is time to replace a stylus assembly? Do you need to wiggle the stylus assembly to break it free from the glue's grip? If there is a different definition, or meaning, please clarify.
Does the stylus assembly now act solely as a rigid continuation of the cartridge body, or is there some molecular absorption of resonance or vibration at the glue points?
Also, which brand of fast-drying epoxy resin do you use, as there are so many at hobby shops?
I first tried this with the laser assembly of my Cd player, and it works perfectly, preventing me from hearing any of that objectionable CD sound ;>) Now I'm ready to try it on my vinyl rig. If anything more goes wrong, I'll be reduced to FM tuner listening, with my family threatening to optimize that with just a touch of epoxy to the tuning knob!
Actually, thanks for conveying in such detail how you get things done.
