My guess is that leaving a new cartridge playing all night at the end of a record won't do too much for burn in.

You need a musical track to get that cartridge vibrating.

Hi beachbum,

The problem with leaving your cart on the leadout groove all night is that - although I believe it will certainly provide enough noise to "burn it in", it may leave your cantilever with a permanent lean to the right!

As they say in the comics ... there's no such thing as a free lunch - so just put up with non-optimal sound for the first 100 LPs or so!   :)

Regards,

Andy
