What is more accurate: magnetic anti-skating, or barrel weight attached a fishline?

I have multiple, adjacent, dedicated music rooms set up using different technologies. The technologies include tape on a Studer which can be rolled between the rooms. These rooms are on a concrete poured floor. If you would like to learn more, and discuss what I have done, please contact me via my AudioGon virtual system. Just click on the Runner.

Dear @ct0517 : I will do.

Btw, I'm always willing to learn and improve my ignorance level.

Regards and enjoy the music,
R.

Dear @ct0517 : I forgot, regarding the 800 set up I think you are using tube amp along the FPBs: is it in this way?

Thank's in advance.

Regards and enjoy the music,

Andrei, Here is how I think of it: A conventional pivoted tonearm is always set up such that the stylus tip overhangs the spindle.  Now think of the relationship between the tonearm, the radius of the LP (from stylus to spindle) and the pivot to spindle distance, as 3 sides of a triangle.  In order for the stylus/cantilever to be tangent to the LP groove, there must be a right-angle triangle formed such that the tonearm and the LP radius are sides A and B of the triangle that must meet at 90 degrees, per the Pythagorean theorem.  In such a triangle, the pivot to spindle distance is side C, the "hypotenuse".  Pythagorean theorem says that the length relationships of sides A, B, and C in such a triangle must be such that C-squared = A-squared + B-squared.  But, because the pivot to stylus distance is always greater than the pivot to spindle distance, when you posit overhang, this condition can never be met.  Thus, for a conventional pivoted tonearm, the stylus/cantilever can NEVER achieve tangency to the groove.  Headshell offset is a band-aid that permits tangency at two points along the arc traced by the stylus, but as noted above, headshell offset per se creates a geometry whereby there is still some skating force even at the 2 points of tangency.

no. not together. They represent two options for running. I am just up north fishing. I will answer your question in more detail on my virtual system thread.
The cool lake environment is keeping me from wanting to go home where it is 35 degree C with the humidity 40+ Celsius weather. Watching the Rio Olympics very interesting to see green pool water and only 18 degrees Celsius. A cold front........Well it is winter there.
