Thanks for asking. You need to do this because of the Tonearm wire. Otherwise you won't be able to put it through the Headshell. The connectors are too big.
Tanks for your comment. It shouldn't jump if it is installed correctly. Did you shorten the tonearm too much or tap too hard on the vinyl while scratching?
@@raminbehzad659 I perfectly understand what is shown in the video, but I need to put another needle, what do I need for this? install a preamp ? I have already installed my stanton 680 needle, but it only works through the phono input in the mixer, if you turn it on line, it plays very quietly and without low frequencies at all
@@stonetronic the video shows to use the same cartridge for a reason. The weight of the cartridges like Stanton and Ortofon etc. is too heavy for usage on a stock PT01 tonearm. If you still chose a different cartridge like your Stanton, you will need to swap the needle very often because it will be worn fast due to the heavy weight. You will also need a pre amp for it. The counterweight of the stock tonearm is not enough to manage other cartridges than the original.
Thanks for asking. As you can see we do not install any pre amps. This mod is not for magnetic cartridges. It's only compatible with the cartridge we send with it. The counterweight of the tone arm is not heavy enough for other cartridges.
What was the purpose off removing the whole tone arm

Portablism Gear just a quick heads up you don’t have to do this just drill out the small hole to fit the wires, I did this and work fine
Suitmyself thanks I have the same question of course you can do that 🤘😎
Could I remove my stopper without removing the entire arm?
Turns out its a possibility. However i stripped the screw so i'll have to remove the whole thing to remove tge stopper
Yooo what track is this? Reminds me of killin it by tha alkoholiks
Dope soundtrack
Placed this mod and it looks really good…on little problem: it jumps a little bit more now when I scratch

@@PortablismGear I managed to fix it, just had to tighten the screws of the head-shell and it doesn’t jump anymore.
Tell me please will it work with the other needle , for example stanton 680hp ?
No.
@@raminbehzad659 I need to install an additional preamp?
@@stonetronic No, please watch the video. It is exactly showing what's to do. It just turns your stock tonearm into a straight one. The audio remains.

Does this mod work with an ION Profile LP?
2nd that question. Did you find out?
They are same units just with the different logo
Hello where can I find replacement needles for this new cartridge?
Thanks for asking. You can buy it here: portablismgear.com/stylus-needle-ceramic-cartridge-with-headshell-mounting-adapter.html
Does this require the preamp mod with the cartridge you supply with it?
Thanks for asking. As you can see we do not install any pre amps. This mod is not for magnetic cartridges. It's only compatible with the cartridge we send with it. The counterweight of the tone arm is not heavy enough for other cartridges.
@@PortablismGear thanks for getting back to me, ill be ordering this and a few other bits from you in the next couple of days
3d принтер? А как скачать ?
What's the purpose of the optional step?
Thanks for asking. You will be able to put the tone arm on the other side of the vinyl to have more space to scratch with the right hand.
A junk needle for another junk needle that's basically the same thing.I got a jesse dean arm.with great results
