    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    How's the TT going Al, are you getting used to it now?
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Encounter MK3c , slight pause , I asked how do I measure the overall length ? or the lenght from the centre of the pivot point ? or from the point where the arm exits the mounting point ? , anothe pause , then Use the protractor that came with the arm , Me " I dont have it , Reply , buy one of our web site ,
    Me I am trying to use a smartractor unit and can only get it set using UNI-DIN , no reply

    Overall length is from the pivot centre to stylus tip.

    If it were 12", it would be pretty obvious, which leaves 10", 9.5", 9".

    Look for:

    254mm (10")
    239mm (9.5")
    229mm (9")

    Someone asking the same with the same arm:

    You can make a basic gauge yourself for the spindle to pivot centre when you decide what the above is.

    I reckon if you can only get uni din then maybe the mounting distance is wrong.

    The centre of the arm base to the centre of the turntable platter (i.e. the spigot) is 222mm (The arm has an effective arm length of 239mm, with a stylus overhang of 17mm, so the arm centre to turntable centre is 239 - 17 = 222mm. It says "222mm (plus or minus 1mm tolerance)" in the text, but the diagram shows it as 222 - 224mm.)

    It all depends on whether it's effective length is 9", 9.5" or 10", which is what he's wanting to know. All the information needed is there in the photo shots. It's only tonearm geometry. It's hardly quantum physics.

    In all probability, it'll be the standard 9.5".
