   finished up. The sound is very tinny. like it's out of phase or something.   
   Like very high distorted treble. I tried different speakers with no change.   
   Replaced the needle with    
   a new good Shure. What are your thoughts on the cartridge being bad? It's   
   wired correctly. If that's not the problem then the amp is going to need   
   re-built. Your thoughts? Thanks!

   phase like AMIs - when you say the cartridge is wired correctly, is that as   
   per diagram?   
      
   I have an AMI as well and the cartridge is wired out of phase. On this   
   Rock-Ola it's not wired out of phase as per the manual instructions. The amp   
   needed re-built. It's all back together and sounds good now. Not as good as my   
   AMI but as good as a Rock-   
   Ola.
