About TJNDrive System
Idler wheel drives in general were originally designed to overcome stylus force drag, as in their day cartridges tracked at 10 grams.
Stylus force drag is the braking action of the stylus in the groove: the greater the groove excursions, or pressure of the stylus, the greater the friction and so braking force. As expected, sudden transients, dynamic shadings and bass are, apart from actual tracking force, the greatest causes of stylus force drag, which is always present, and it is here that failure to overcome it is most audible.
