Surprised you didn’t catch that. Here’s a proper reference: https://www.vinylengine.com/turntable_forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=64477 Yours: http://www.theanalogdept.com/effective_length.htm

Also in the same reference @cleeds linked to the picture showing a measurement of VTA is weird - 27degrees would be way off for VTA in anyone’s book ... luckily for me it's quite easy to see the pivot point for my cartridge as the coils are exposed http://www.rutherfordaudio.com/shop/media/catalog/product/cache/3/image/1200x1200/9df78eab33525d08d6...

By the way - the dual pivot is a very audible improvement.
