The arm is reasonably light and I don't use the extra counterweight with the Shure. I tried a Decca super gold on the arm and it through a wobbly reacting badly to the snare drum on a Roy Orbison song. It was cured by some putty between the cart and headshell.
The Shure sounds better than Benz wood sl I used on it before. Its quite a versatile arm to be fair.
