Adjust your tone arm weight for more weight. Maybe extra weight onto your headshell (needle assembly). A lot of old school DJ's would use coins for this modification. The turntable brand of choice for original and modern turntablists were/are Technics. That is because they have been manufacturing the SL1200 since 1972.
