Who Has Technics Headshell with Azimuth Adjustment?
The
TPBGA003
head shell comes with SL-1200GL / SL-1210GL https://panasonic.encompass.com/model/MSCSL1200GR https://panasonic.encompass.com/model/MSCSL1210GR |
The worthless method should not be substituted for the same valuation or opinion. There are those small round levels which can be put on the headshell . So it seems obvious that without azimuth provision in the headshell those levels will be of no help. BTW not only azimuth but also SRA , arm level and eff. length can be adjusted this way; by ''movable connector''. If the cart is correctly made then all parameter can be adjusted in this way. |
From the Panasonic site photos it appears there is a set screw at the bottom of the barrel. It may be that headshell removal is necessary to access that screw, which would be a pain. Those manufacturers that provide a set screw on the side of the barrel at least allow adjustment without removing the headshell. |
Whoever try to fasten carts without screw threads with screws and nuts know how irritating this way of fastening is. For such carts the AT headshells are much more easy to use. Because screw threads are at the under side no nuts are needed . Holding those small nuts fast while trying to get the screw in is an nightmare. But because there are only 3 such threads the effective length can be only adjusted with movable 4 pin connector . To put this otherwise AT headshells are not ''universal''. They are suitable for the carts without screw threads. |
