Get the perfect turntable cartridge with the Riverstone Audio Record-Level Turntable Stylus Tracking Force Gauge/Scale!Chas: I wanted this to adjust the tracking force on my personal turntable. First, it works amazing with an eneloop aaa cell. I grabbed one that hasn't been charged in 5 years and the scale ran for 1/2 hour and was still going strong. Its a bit finicky attaching the arm and calibrating it. The video online seems to be for a slightly older revision. The little metal box it comes with is delightfull. It's super sensitive. There is a safety seal and an external as well as internal holographic seal. I'm guessing this is to help identify fakes. Other than that not.much to add. It is as advertised and well documented. It will live in my treasure box of audio oddities.

Ron G.: I don't have to use this very often, only I'm when changing cartridges or if I have moved or changed something on the turntable, possibly 2 or 3 times a month. I find it highly accurate, very reliable, and also really easy to use. I always use the included 5g. weight to verify the scale's accuracy and it is always right on within .05g It is well worth the price and I highly recommend this for its accuracy. Having owned and used it for 4 years now, I wouldn't trade it for any other scale. I highly recommend this over any other scale and I have owned a few.

JennaP: Tested against a set of scientific student weights .. very accurate. Love that the extension replicates the thickness of a record on the TT for perfect VTF measurements. Cons …. Really only one. Installing the extension is a bit of a clumsy process and it must be removed for storage and then reinstalled when you use the scale again.

Derek Peck: Works better than cheap one that came with my total set from another co. Take measurements. First set up then repeat . Used on my linn axis with new audio techniques vm95 SH cartridge. Totally different than my older orthofon.

mlswmlsw: The Riverstone Gauge is great value for money. It measures the same as my Rega MKII gauge which cost 5 times more. Tested on my Rega P8, under same conditions, you can see that the measures were the same. Having said that the Rega MKII is easier to use as it self calibrates and no attachment is needed to get the measurement (but not worth the significant additional cost in my opinion). Riverstone’ she customer service is 1st rate also, had a question and they replied very quickly. Very happy with the purchase and can readily recommend this to anyone that’s in the market for a tracking force gauge.
