[Jukebox-list] AMI R-84 Jukebox speaker problem

[Ina-Gadda-Da-Records]

Hello Again Ron,
Silly me.....I had Pink and Brown mixed up. Got them right and everything 
balances out. Sound is strong. Thanks for making me think. I also think I 
stole this machine for $100.
One other question. I have some real clean and rare 45's to play, but was 
told that the tone arm is typically too heavy and that the records will wear 
out quickly. I moved the counter balance out as far as it would go and it 
still seems a bit heavy. Is there something out there that will even out the 
balance a little better (maybe a slightly heavier counterbalance)? Or do I 
just throw a washer on the tail? I'd like to play some of these records, but 
I don't want to ruin them. OR maybe it's all a wives tale.
Dave
