    Default New guy here from MAINE!

    Hey guys! I have been trying to properly align my new cart on my Pioneer PL-71. I stumbled upon this forum and had to join! The info on here and the help that is given is great! I look forward to learning about more advanced set up features on my PL-71.

    Anyone know the best protractor to use on my PL-71? Im installing a new Ortofon 2M Bronze next week. (upgraded from a 2M Blue) and would really like to dial in the cart properly. Any help on what protractor to use and what settings to type in if you recommend an arc type, would be great!

    Thanks in advance!

    Dave A.

    Hello Dave. Welcome to AOS.

    I'm sure members can advise with your turntable. Try starting a thread in the 'Analogue Arts' section and asking your questions.

    Tell us what music you like and what other equipment you use in your Hi-Fi system.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.
