No you should reset VTA, VTF and overhang for every record you play just to be sure along with cleaning the record, stylus and all the other faffing needed to get good vinyl playback.
No wonder some folk gave up!

That actually sounds like a really good ideaput 2 slip covers on the deck and set it up for the thin record. when putting a thick one on, take one slip offBut the platter has no mat on at all, just the bare metal (as the manufacturer intended). I plan to take the t/t back for a service in the near future, I'll ask the question.

I'm Grant.
no use for yours then... you can buy packs of 2 slips that are both same thickness, and one oft has a cut out for the label.
looks like your stuck with it.. maybe get it set half way between two thicknesses..

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!”

I think it maybe is now - Alan Firebottle had an unsolicited tinker with it during a recent visit. You know what Alan's like, if you lent him your car it would probably come back as an amphibious landing craft or something...

Not forgetting to adjust for any changes in the temperature in the operating environment.No you should reset VTA, VTF and overhang for every record you play just to be sure along with cleaning the record, stylus and all the other faffing needed to get good vinyl playback.

Yes, it's potentially a tricky thing. Rising temperature may adversely affect fluid damped arms and could possibly raise cartridge cantilever suspension compliance with perhaps some benefitshit i forgot about that! now ive gotta start all over again
