Since that isnt the original turntable for that set, its a possibility that the output on the cartridge installed is the wrong output voltage which will make it sound horrible. The Stewart Warner sets typically handle a cartridge between 1 and 2 volts. That unit originally had a 78rpm only webster turntable in it. Luckily your Collaro turntable (which is a nice upgrade for this set) will fit most of the cartridges out there so its just a matter of finding one with the correct output voltage and your good to go. Most Collaro turntables i've seen were fitted with cartridges in the .25 to .50 volt range so that might be your problem. Beautiful job on the restoration though and since i have a couple Stewart Warner combo's i know you are enjoying the nice warm sound of the radio. They just dont make them like that anymore. Nice job Steve!
