Newbie Question: VTA and Rega P25/RB600

I believe the 10x4 dyno is pretty on for the rega, and you may not need to adjust vta for it. You should look into the specs on it as they compare to the rega cartridges. Better yet, contact a rega dealer, or the importer and ask.

enjoy the vinyl!

Very helpful responses, much appreciated folks.

Also check out Clearaudio Aurum Beta - it is short and very nearly perfect without any VTA adjustment. It is a great Cartridge regardless.

I agree w/ marakanetz go w/ a spacer for the rega 600 arm, pending on cartridge you use will tell your thickness you need. My last turntable was a p-25/ rb-600 /benz ace as I did not opt for a spacer and fought it the whole time, my solution was to play one side at a time and not lift your needle. So learn from my procrastination PUT THE SPACER IN.
I also put a ringmat 330mkII on it, sonicly I felt it did not change it dramaticly what it did do is reduce the static from the felt mat. As I dont wash every record each play .

The P25 arrived, mounted up the Dynavector 10x4. Nice overall sound, plenty of details in the mix (love that about vinyl), however it's noticeably light in the bass and maybe a tad bright on top -- but the lack of bass is pretty aparent. Spin up the CDP as a reference (Linn Ikemi) and the comparison is obvious.

I believe I've got the cartridge aligned properly and the tracking is set to the recommended 1.7g. I experimented with tracking from 1.5 to 2.5 and went back to 1.7, none of which really did much for the lack of low end.

I'm running it through my MC setion of my Linn Karin preamp not the MM section. Tried the MM section for grins and no affect.

Is this sounding like a VTA issue?

If so which direction do I go to correct this type of symptom?

Thanks again for all the help, much appreciated!
