ok so here's where im at with turntable set up...
i use the alignment paper disc that came with the hifi news test record.for my linn arm its an 18mm overhang,to achieve this
i place a m12 nut on a drawn line 18mm from the center spindle then gently lower the tonearm down onto the spindle and eye the stylus tip up against the side of the nut.
once ive done that i then align the cartridge in the normal way using the 2 null points.i know there are more costly alignment gauges about and when funds allow i might go for the one made by mint.
my question is,is this good enough? how would you set the overhang as it seems to me you can be + or - the 18 mm and still get the cantilever square.
perhaps im worrying to much?
