I’ve bought myself a HiFi News Vinyl Test LP.  How successful are members with mastering the tracking of the “torture track”?

Not tried the toughest one but I am curious to see how a linear tracker does, Ifor. How did you get on with your AM6?

I tried the toughest one and failed. I’m really liking the AM6. Very happy with the whole package.

FWIW none of my arms/carts passed it. But it hasn't spoiled my listening either.

Well not without extra downforce and antiskate that didn't sound good on music.

Never had anything pass the torture track on the HiFi News test LP.
I don't use that LP much anymore & generally just prefer to use music.
Glad you like the AM6.
