Hi Tony,
Is this for a magnetic cartridge or ceramic ?
Is it lacking in bass because it is a lower output cartridge than original, and you have to turn up the volume to get a decent sound, and the potentiometer has moved out of the loudness contour, so the sound is a bit thin?
Even naff repro styli in the genuine cartridges can produce poor bass.
Anyhow if this is a case then I do have a solution, i.e improving the bass by boosting the output volume of the cartridge to the amp/preamp.
If so, let me know and I'll type in the reply because I did this 2 years ago and found a great solution.
What is the jukebox and cartridge ?
I'm assuming all is wired correctly and if it's a Rowe that the cartridge wires are out of phase.
If you want a quick fix and it's a tube amp, pull the avc tube 😁.
