Advice please got a sl1210 with a Ianmac bearing and a Achromat I picked one of these off ebayhttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1pcs-Acrylic-Tonearm-VTA-Cartridge-Azimuth-Alignment-Ruler-68mm-50mm-10mm/142647116317?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 and after checking arm today even with the vta at the lowest setting the arm is sloping down towards the front .
I am using a ADC LMG-1 headshell and a Ortofon 2mblue .
so to raise the front I have a couple of choices raise bearing ,raise Achromat or shim cartridge !
Any recomendations whats the best way to do it ?

Why not just get a head shell spacer?
