Check your connections to make shure *(-- that you didn't mis-connect any of the wires, then reverse the connections on one channel and see if your bass returns. Also it is not uncommon to have the cartridges sound change considerably during the first few hours of play (as the mechanism breaks in - although, again in Shure's case I would be surprised). It is also possible you received a DOA V15 VMR and just need to return it. Another short note to you high end audiopiles out there ... You should listen seriously to the new Shure Ultra 500! While some people thought Shure wasn't making the best cartridges they knew how to make, Shure went and built a tweeked version of the V15 VMR and it is a very fine cartridge!! Since the Ultra 500 is already gold plated it should compete with the alchemist series *(-- . David S. Mohler AT&T - ISL @ Denver drune!mohler Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
