Last night I finally tried damping fluid impact with my Elite tonearm. I never used to feel like using the fluid since I installed the tonearm which even from the beginning it performs rock solid. I decided to see the impact via adding a bit less than initial recommended level. The result was a trade off, dynamic impact and bass were given away on top of a bit softening of images while soundstage was more holographic as well as a bit more liquidity at midrange. I reduced the amount of liquid and finally decided to remove all (back to no liquid at the cup). Can any Phantom/Elite users share their experiences with damping fluid levels?
