Thanks,
Good possibility the original was magnetic based on the results you are getting. Did it not have a cartridge when you acquired it? Do you have a resistor substitute box? If so hook it between the output of one channel of the cartridge and ground. Start high and start lowering the value and see what happens. It may attenuate the output, low enough that you will be able to determine that you need a magnetic cartridge instead of the ceramic you have installed.
