Digital Turntable Stylus Force Scale

Post by trickster »

Anyone is using a scale to calculate the stylus weight?
I did everything as described in the instructions but I wanna be sure the weight of the stylus is the correct.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Signstek-Backli ... B00H7WUN10

Any other model suggestions or stores to buy from?

Not digital, but here's the one I use. Very simple, not too expensive:
