cleeds, You are repeating my question without any answer because
your ''suspition'' does not answer anything. I stated my own ''suspition'' but about my own Triplanar and asked other owners if their Triplanar has the same, say, deviation. To satify your curiosity my Triplanar VII was brand new when purchased as
was/is my Reed 3P but not my FR-64 S which track better than other two despite the fact that it was second hand. The involved properties are all of the physical nature so no mystery should be involved.
