this owns!

Yeah, they're all newer releases.. and they are pop/dance and downtuned metal so lots of heavy bass for sure. I would have never thought about tonearm height being a factor. I'll see if my table has an adjustment for that, thank you.  

Are we talking contemporary releases or older stuff? apanese 70:s & 80:s stuff are usually fine (unless it's scratched or storage warped), but newer stuff may have problems if it's mastered the same as for a CD (for example: extreme pannings and too loud bass can cause skips). 
 
But yeah, just fiddle around a bit with the tonearm weight and see if it gets better. I usually have mine set at +2.5 ~3g or thereabout. You'll notice it if you've set it too high if the sound starts gets distorted. Also, if you have the opportunity to adjust the height of your tonearm, you might want to look into that as well - thicker pressings (180g and above, ie. mostly 00:s and later releases) may require some adjustment.

  

@DREAMON DREAMERI'll either keep updating it as irregularly as always, or maybe do a revamp of it ...we'll see

cool stuff!

Hm, just a hunch, but don't you think they mean "Nigaaa" as in 苦い (Nigai = bitter)? Considering that it's followed by "Uma!" (= "umai" [うまい?], which I think means delicious or tasty). But yeah, looks pretty iffy written out like that either way
