Hey all
I have a record that is perfect VG+ or better. Looks and plays great. On one TT [Debut Carbon Evo w/Wellfleet stylus] it get stuck in a spot. It does not get stuck on the other [Scott PS87-A w/ Stanton 681ee.
Does anyone have an idea why this would happen? -

hard to know, could be a lot of things
some needles/set-ups simply track better, or are more sensitive, than others.
do you have anti-skate set the same way on both turntables?
is the needle on one set up much older or more worn than on the other?
without having the record in front of me to check I can't tell you what is on the record itself that might be causing this, could be a minor flaw in the press, some damage not visible to the naked eye, or dirt/grit stuckin the groove. -

Thanks. the anti skate sets up different on both. AFAIK they are very similar. Ive not had this issue yet, this is the first time.
I looked at the area with a magnifying glass and did not see any groove issues. Ive cleaned this record 3x and as far as i can see, the grooves are clean. the Wellfleet is new [100 hours or less] also its nude elliptical. The Stanton is 4-5 years old with thousands of hours on it. Its not nude -

Does not the Stanton have the brush attached to the cart ? That alone can help pull a stylus through trouble areas all by itself. -

No, i took the brush off years ago. the stanton plays perfect, its the wellfleet that gets stuck
edit: i just understood what you were getting at
