For the Xpression stylus type, just set normal antiskating, according to recommended tracking force.
Although the Xpression will provide top reproduction right out of the box, the cartridge may slightly change character during the first tens of hours of use. This is completely normal and you may, in fact, find that this adds further refinement to your listening experience.
