Note that on the shell there is an adjustment M or A. It needed a new stylus of course, being second hand. The cartridge is a perfectly respectable Shure M7 5EJ. Adjustment is provided by moving a metal plate between the magnets to reduce the force. Two magnets are arranged to oppose each other and thus provide a force to counter the tendency for the stylus to skate towards the center of the record. Zero 100 parallel trackingĪnother feature is the magnetic anti skate mechanism. This arm features a pivoting head shell which kept at the correct angle by a second arm which sits along side the main load bearing arm. This is due to the arm moving in an arc over the record. A problem with your normal turntable arm is that the stylus is only actually in line with the grooves at two places as it traverses the record. The parallel tracking arm was only available on the most expensive Garrard decks. The Garrard Zero 100 was top of the range at the time.
