    Default Digital Stylus Tracking Force Gauge

    I have one but would like another as a backup.

    Anyone have any experience of any of these, are they ok ? - I dont want to spend too much

    Are the first two pretty much the same thing ? Any recommendations....

    Hi Jimbo, Trust all is good in the world of the mighty Black ?

    Incidentally, which one of the gauges are you referring ?

    Hi Rob, yes the mighty black is back to its usual sonic nirvana.

    The gauge I have is the first link you put up.

    I have another stylus balance which is better but it is £25 and not sure if available as it came with my VPI

    I've got the first one and does the job very well. Some " clever " people put a posh makers name on them and try to charge five times as much........gits.

    That's true Ian. I've found that with a lot of other items too. Cheap but effective things from China.

    The differences and amounts some people try to add on can be shocking

    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    Well done - it's what I use.

    Just remember, 'resolution' is not the same as 'accuracy'.
