Help with balance left to right

[MichaelHiFi]

This is driving me crazy. For the longest time, and not noticed on every album, I do not have a central image. It is skewed to the right by about 1/3 towards my right speaker.

My setup is Rega P10-Apheta 3 cart, Allnic H5000 phono, Wavelet II.

Calibrated with Wallyskater. Tracking force = 1.975 grams. Cart appears to be in perfect alignment.

Swapping cables left /right from Phono stage to preamp (wavelet) results in central image. Image does not appear to skew towards left. When I swap Rega outputs to phonostage I get a perfect central image but then I swapped left to right so music is reversed.

I checked too, the wires are the cartridge and they are properly connected. "It has to be something simple" said the dummy at setting it up.

Can someone help this dummy?

It’s simple. Swap channels twice, at the input of phono and input of pre. Most probably both the cartridge and phono stronger on the right side. This way you can eliminate it.
