There are much better options around, Andrew, if you truly want to upgrade your headshell. Sorry to hear about your amp. That's pretty disgraceful from Yamaha, when you're spending that kind of money!
Marco.
It's only because the Jelco was a bit thicker so would help with the VTA as the AT cart is only 16mm in height.
Now i find of course that the arm height goes down further than '0', sort of minus so it may not be an issue anyway.
Would be happy to hear of your suggestions on a headshell of course! I also need some extra headshells for my 78's and 7” singles so they will all come in handy anyway.
