Let's face it though not every deck, particularly ones in clubs - you should have felt the looseness of the arm of one I had to play out on last Saturday (not your gig Robin, the other one!) - will be set up this well.

:) you should have seen the setup on the old technics that we swapped out for that vestax

Surely when making records which may well be
played under such circumstances you'd want them to have a tolerance for a little maladjustment rather than needing a spot on set up? When you see the size of the shake the arm gets on these cuts there must be a fair amount of energy being transmitted to it. This is what I think the problem is - people putting more and more bass into things without reducing overall level of the track - which
in the end I guess just equals constantly cutting things louder.

Digital is the way forward

And back on topic. I have some of those Ortofon Nightclub E headshells you mention. They really blow those Stantons away as well as the Shure M44-7s I had on before.
