Phonopreamps.com Tracking Force Scale / Stylus Gauge on eBay

Welcome to
PHONOPREAMPS.COM

High end cartridges feature very low tracking forces, very delicate stylus assemblies and very high price tags. Those rinky-dink seesaw stylus scales just don't cut it when a moment's clumsiness can set you back hundreds of dollars! These little digital beauties allow the serious audiophile to adjust and confirm stylus pressure with full confidence and minimal handling. Even if your cartridge isn't so high-end, both it and your records will benefit from proper adjustment, and sound their best too. As an added bonus, these tiny scales fit in your pocket, go anywhere and can weigh lots of other things besides your tonearm. A number of our competitors are selling similar-looking scales with MUCH poorer resolution (0.1g instead of our 0.01G); in some cases for much more money than ours!

This four-digit LCD scale features a 0-50g range, can also read in grams, ounces, carats and grains, and has a resolution of 0.01g, more than sufficient accuracy for tonearm adjustment. It has tare function, which means it can accurately weigh material placed in a small container such as a vial or bowl. It's truly tiny (100x80x19mm; about the size of a pack of playing cards), weighs only 80 grams, and will fit in your pocket, yet has a larger and very readable display. The slightly bowl-shaped platform is near-perfect for phono use. It's powered by two CR2032 button batteries (included), and shuts itself off after a minute of inactivity should the user forget. Included are a leatherette case and a clear plastic protector lid to keep the weighing surface clean. This is just the ticket if you're looking for a gift for the record enthusiast in your life. This scale comes in a colorful display box and carries a one year defective exchange warranty.
