Hello All,
My Shure M97XE reached almost 5 years now, very sparingly used, less than 100 record spins in my opinion. However in between for 3 years I did not use my turntable until last month I resurrected things. While the Shure played well initially but in one of the listening sessions suddenly this problem appeared where one channel is sounding suppressed than the other. I checked after lot troubleshooting that there is lint / dirt stuck on the stylus tip which I cleaned using the cleaner liquid and things started working fine. But yesterday I find the same problem again and even after cleaning the stylus tip the problem persist. Need some help and suggestions, overhang is 52 mm and weight at tip is 1.29 gm (checked with digital weight scale), leads seems to be tight and swapping channels on preamp swapped the amp channels too. Have not checked swapping CNC phono channels though
Any pointers? Some online forums seem to point out that this may be a Shure M97XE problem and option can be to replace it. Suggestions Welcome.
