Penny on turntable head-shell?
I just started using an old turntable that was handed down to me the other week and bought a few records on ebay, some of which would play fine and others which had a ton of skips all over the place. When taking a closer look at those records there didn't seem to be any major scratches so I was wondering how to get them to play well.
I had already maxed out the counterweight setting, so I ended up placing a penny on top of the head-shell and they now play without skipping. Is doing this bad for the records or any part of the turntable (needle or tonearm)? Will it create any long term damage?
help??? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AngfM2KlmhxGqmjrcdzTm0zsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100307110855AAFC3Ve
