Hi there Ev,
I'm looking forward to comparing notes with you since I have ProJect TT also, which I think uses the same arm.
I can never seem to get the position of the loop that holds the anti-skate wire right. When I do what's in the manual (hard to interpret and implement, IMO), one part of the arm (not the arm, but the ring thingy that holds the arm) will actually hit the anti-skate string as the arm is at the very inner part of a record.
- Does your AS string clear all parts of the arm at the very inner grooves of the record, and by how much? At which AS groove on the TT?
I really don't like the AS setup on this arm - Can't be good to have something that is swinging side to side being attached to the tonearm
I sometimes just take the damn thing off and swear it sounds better.
- If you want you can check out my Speed Box MKII, or Tube Box SE phono stage.
- I also have the fancy ProJect cartridge alignment tool which is made for our arms. Feel free...
- I find that my belt always sticks to the platter (sign that I don't use the TT enough I guess) and I have had one belt deteriorate on me - Brittle to the point that it crumbled in my hands.
- Whorin' for my bro here, but he is a ProJect dealer so if you need anything else...
