The purpose of the anti skate actually isn't to stop the arm skating across the record. The purpose is to counteract centrifugal force in the inner record grooves at the last tracks. The grooves are narrower there and inner groove distortion occurs as the stylus clings to the inner groove wall. The anti skate keeps the stylus in the center of the groove.

Thank you so much for these videos! I had a crosley for a very brief time, and then I ran into your video on how awful those are. So yesterday I went and myself a professional turntable, and your videos helped me get to the promised land of vinyl perfection. Again: thank you!

@zippycruz27 3 года назад

Great videos. Have you covered how to set up anti-skating using a hanging counterweight? I have this on my turntable and would love to see your advice.

Hi Jarrett, my at lp120 has the anti skate problem, seems I'll have to open and modify it. Does your anti skating system work alright? Thank you

@Shanoa 7 лет назад

@VinylRescue 8 лет назад

Since I have the same TT I need to pass on a point about this. This might be a basic rule of thumb for most, but it doesn't work accurately on mine at all. Some have posted you should set it at twice the value of your tracking force. Some have posted theirs were broken and had to return them. What I have found is the most accurate is using the Hi-Fi News Analogue Test LP. It has many tests on it, but the last one on side 2 is the best for setting the anti-skate by ear. Does it work? It did for me as I had a couple of LPs that used to skip, but no longer skip. My tracking force is 1.6 on my AT440MLa cartridge, but my anti-skate is set at 5.8. The album cost about $50 and I found it worth it. Enjoyed your videos!

@Kabamaru86 7 лет назад

I buy a needle, ortofon pro s and it say to adjust at 4 grams but my sl 1200 mk2 have only 3 scale anti skate. what i have to do on this?

@hellfried68 8 лет назад

I find that with the VTF and anti skate set at 2, the needle slams into the starting groove of some records. Will it damage the needle or the record? To avoid this should I set the anti skate to a higher or lower value?

@Rijeka82 7 лет назад

I have problem with Anti skate on this turntable.. and i saw that many people have also this problem :(

@noelnoel4796 7 лет назад

the at lp120 is notorious for having a non existent anti skate function. you should have made a short video of the actual test on a blank vinyl record after you set the anti skate to see if it really works.

@pat_hcn 8 лет назад

funny because the anti skate of the lp120 doesn't work. even on bnew ones. if you don't believe me, try it with a cd or better yet with a laser disc. the arm will still move to the center, even if you're all the way upto 7. took mine's arm base and replaced it with a shorter spring. voila. the numbers on the anti skate are just guides. not necessarily the same counter force. bottom line, best way to calibrate your anti skate is with a CD or an LD.

@dennisgallant9411 7 лет назад

Patrick. Do you have a video of how you replaced the spring? Mine does exactly the same thing on a laserdisc. Also...where did you get a new spring that works? Thanks for any help.

@jimmjimms 8 лет назад

is there any risk of damage if the anti skate is not set to the same exact thing as the weight? I find that on some records it helps with skipping that sometimes occurs while set at "properly" to have it instead set a little lower, sometime records play fine and sound great even with my headphones set at 0! is this a situation of as long as it works its fine, or am I doing damage to my collection when I do this? (usually only a thing with used records)

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

@shvinehoond 4 года назад

@@jerryking7502 where on the disc should it stay stationary? I can set my tone arm to stay stationary anywhere on the disc, but only one place at a time. Should the stylus stay stationary wherever you drop it on the video disc?

@keithparkhill8546 5 лет назад

Here is my opinion. If your using elliptical, or micro line styli it's absolutely important to have a good anti skate or your stereo field will be heavy on one side untill the middle of the record. If your using spherical 0.7 styli it's doesn't matter. That stylis circumference will touch each side of the track regardless of anti skate. I never run anything but one on the Chinese OEM tables.

@legojedi101 8 лет назад

I also have the LP120, yet when I test the anti-skate it on a blank piece of vinyl, it still rotates to the center. Any advice?

@tsetso8 7 лет назад

Hi ! With me is the same ! Any ideas ? How did you resolved that please?!

@dirtyths 4 года назад

Wait a minute, sorry guys, but the anti-skate does NOT prevent the stylus to jump the groove, if it does, there's something wrong with your set-up, cartridge compliance, or record but it has not much to do with anti-skate. But to know this, you first gotta know what skating is. Skating is not a force, like centrifugal force, it is a drag effet that happens because the traction force on the needle is not in the same axis as the tonearm's axis, which makes the rotating disc act like a pull on both axis, trying to make a single straight line. This is why linear tonearms don't need anti-skating. If you don't apply anti-skate, what happens is that there will be slightly more pressure on the inner wall of the groove. Anti-skate compensate this effect and makes the pressure even on both walls of the groove. But by no means is this effect strong enought to make the stylus jump. It just reduces tracking errors and make the stylus wear-out evenly. The longer the tonearm, the less anti-skate you need. And this is why matching the anti-skating to the tracking force is also not the right way to do it. Most of the time, we simply put too much of it this way, making the right side of the stylus wear out faster. What you really want to achieved with anti-skate is making the tonearm gently go along the groove. And to set that correctly, you will need a flat surface, like a blank side (no groove) of a record (some test records have blank spaces exactly made for that). You put the needle on the rotating surface and adjust the ant-skate so the tonearm goes inward VERY SLOWLY. This is where it's going anyway, you dont want to fight that too much.

@Livewire91 3 года назад

Should it not be possible to do this with the blank space between the last groove and record label? It should be slowly moving towards the record label?

@dirtyths 3 года назад

@@Livewire91 In theory, yes. but you don't have much time and the groove might catch the stylus anytime

@blakeabraham7047 6 лет назад

What about players with a different anti-skate setup? I.e., "notches" instead of a dial?

@conradhartgmx 5 лет назад

My 2 Cents: you can actually hear if your antiskating is off, if you Listen closely. Antiskating differs from the outer to the inner grooves and i find myself adjusting the antiskate settings while listening to an lp more often. Heres what i do generally to set up AS: find a good mix in your collection with a certain amount of reverb in it. i heard that „year of the cat“ should work well, anyway I always use „love theme“ by Barry white. While listening via headphones start with AS set at 0 and SLOWLY start to turn AS up. You will hear the rhythym Guitar and Violins slowly wandering in your speakers/head. I can assure that when I did this for the first time it was magical. :) but you have to really do it Slow as it is rather a subtle effect. And best not look at the settings......edit: and of course you have to stop at the Sweet Spot. ;) from my experience thats usually AS Setting set a Bit Lower than tracking force

@Iliek 7 лет назад

Bro you at least need to test the anti-skate, not just set and forget. You'll find that on the LP120 the anti-skate force is extremely weak and modifying it is the only way to get it to track properly.

@KingQuanProductions 8 лет назад

Its really weird because now my turntable tone arm will start moving to the arm rest when i have the anti skate matching the tracking force. But when the anti skate is at zero it will work perfectly fine. Is this ok?? Or should i be worried

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

+King Quan Productions if it works properly at zero, then that's ok. What you don't want is the arm drifting toward the center or the outside of the record. You want it to stay right in the middle.

@dominicpanico2682 4 года назад

@@vinyleyezz I am having the same issue. I set it back to 0. Can you explain further what you mean by drifting towards the center? Isn't it needle naturally moving through the grooves and eventually gonna move towards the center?

Sorry for my bad spelling :D

@MegaIkedog 8 лет назад

Jarrett, will you be doing a video series on your audio setup? Also, do you have a PO Box if I wanted to send you some records? I got the same Micca bookshelf speakers, Pioneer sub, and Yamaha receiver that you have for X-mas and I'm loving them!! Cheers, Steve

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

+Steve Carney Awesome! I'm so glad you're happy with your new setup! Yes, my current PO Box address is "Jarrett New, 321 N. Pass Ave, #139 Burbank, CA 91505" I might change it after February, but if you send records this month, I should get them! Thanks so much and take care!

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

+Steve Carney Also, in the final video of this series I'll be talking about the vinyl audio setup, which is basically the 4 main things every setup needs. So keep an eye out for it!

@MegaIkedog 8 лет назад

+Vinyl Eyezz I ask because I'm curious as to how you have your subwoofer hooked up. I've got mine connected to the receiver with subwoofer cables (purple) but I know you can also connect the bookshelf speakers to the sub and then run the sub to the receiver. A process like this certainly is more visual than trying to think through it with words, like I did above, so I was hoping you could show us!!

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

+Steve Carney Oh ok, actually the receiver has 2 channels for output, 100 watts each. So I connected the bookshelf speakers to it on channel 1 with normal speaker wire, and then connected the sub on channel 2, also with speaker wire. Works pretty well!

@MegaIkedog 8 лет назад

Okay Gotcha! Yeah I've got the bookshelf speakers connected to channel A, and a pretty nice pair of JBL speakers (similar to the ones in this link, but from the mid 90's: www.amazon.com/JBL-Control-Performance-150-Watt-Miniature/dp/B000U2G6VA) connected to channel B facing the other direction. My setup is in my grandparents basement, so if I have channel B on, my grandma can hear my records while she's on her desktop at the other end of the basement! :)

@jordanl4406 8 лет назад

I'm having issues with my anti skate on an AT-LP120. No matter if it is at 1 or 7 the tone arm goes to the middle when I test it on a blank sided record.

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

+SeeburgMan 1000 hmm, maybe the tracking force is too light, causing the arm to glide across the record when you spin it.

@jordanl4406 8 лет назад

+Vinyl Eyezz well I have the tone arm set at 2 grams.

@gunsreloader7121 7 лет назад

that's because anti-skating doesn't work at all on the AT-LP120. It is there just as an ornament, it is attached to nothing...

@indyvinylz 8 лет назад

hmm sounds too easy for me... ;) i have tested the anti skate adjustment with a blank vinyl, and checked the force by that. when you turn the little anti skate wheel you def. see a reaction of the tonearm on the blank vinyl. like that i coud kinda match the right anti sakte. for my m44-7 shure (on technics 1210) with 2,75 g weight.. the anti skate i choose was 1,8. this was the setting that puts the needle mostly in itz place while the needle was spinning on the blank record. just seemed like the most logic setup, as there is not so much force pushing the needle towards the spindlehole or in the opposite direction. this is still a mystery with this force... i just think the equal weight setting is a little too easy if you want a good result... but again, i am no pro at this, but seen a lotta videos about it and read texts on boards about this... so this is just my thought about this :) greetings :) dj skeli

@vinyleyezz 8 лет назад

Ok no worries! If your method works for you then that's cool too! Essentially as long as the arm doesn't get pulled too fast one way or another then you're good!

@jorgemartin5093 Год назад

It's not that simple. First out turntable must be at level too.. Then for the antiskating we gotta get an empty face vinyl and place the needle over it and rotate the antiskating adjust till the needle always stays in the same place. Some guys use laser disc or a cd but the material is not the same.

@ThomasMoreyThomas 7 лет назад

this is not totally correct. The best way to set anti-skate is to get a blank record, put the tonearm in the center of thblank. Then adjust the antiskate so the tonearm is dead center and not pulling toone direction or the other. Ifu can't get a blank disk, ucan always remove the stylus and use a record that has scratches or one u don't like to set the A/S up.

@ManicksChannel 6 лет назад

Thats not entirely accurate. Your anti skate is tension based and, if the spring is old, the dial may not be entirely accurate. A good way to set anti skate without spending any real money is to use an unwanted CD or blank CD and place it (label down of course) on your record player. Turn it on to making the CD spin and set the anti skate so that the stylus runs along the outside edge of the CD. Make sure the stylus does not go of the CD and run along your mat. If imagine that would be very bad for your stylus. The best way is to buy a blank vinyl record so that you can set the anti skate so that the stylus runs somewhere along the middle of where the groved section would be on a regular vinyl. Really the only true way to set anti skate. Setting it based on the dial is setting it blind really.

@everettberry6339 Год назад

Do NOT trust that your anti-skate is working properly. Especially on vintage models. My old Pioneer PL-560 is set at about .8 even though the stylus weight is set to 1.8 grams. Use an acrylic platter mat or single sided record to set it.
