mijostyn"Cleeds you are smoking too much pot and like usual you have no idea what you are talking about and are only confusing others who are trying to understand this. You should be ashamed of yourself. When you have no idea what you are talking about we would all be better served if you would just shut up.

Cleeds is like an oozing infected boil he is wrong almost all of the time and does not even own a Music Reproduction System I believe he should be banished from this group for infecting us with error, misinformation, propaganda and deception. Mijostyn I think you may be correct that cleeds is hopelessly stoned, intoxicated or drugged beyond his ability to think, reason, and  articulate with any value, meaning, or substance at all he is a hopeless, wasted, useless member of this group.

@cleeds,
"Your claim can only be accurate if the pickup arm (or turntable) itself is not "true." That is, the arm cannot be raised or lowered while also remaining absolutely perpendicular to the turntable platter.
Or perhaps, like mijostyn, you don't understand what these angles define."

Often wrong, but never in doubt.

In the first place, the arm perpendicular to the platter?

Let me make it easy for you.  Make believe that instead of the usual offset, the cartridge had a 90 degree offset from the arm.  Of course this would never be, but play along for a moment.  Surely then if you raised the arm the azimuth would change.  Right?

Now consider changing the offset angle a bit towards a reasonable one.  Then the arm being raised would change the azimuth, but a bit less and would continue to do so less and less until the cartridge was lined up with the arm, no offset.  Can you see it now?

Cleeds you are such a baby. You have all my posts deleted because you can't take being dead wrong. melm, don't bother. He is totally incapable of understand. I already tried an analogy a 3 year old could understand.
Cleeds is a contrary. (Little Big Man) 
Everyone better read this before cleeds has it deleted. Never in doubt and always wrong.

I applaud, congratulate, and honor mijostyn for his insightful, accurate, penetrating observation, analysis, and characterization of "cleeds" and for mijostyn's bravery, fortitude, and honor in bringing forth this truth. Cleeds is like an infected boil or perhaps a hemmoroid who stains this group with his observations, pronouncements, and proclamations that he issues with the air of resounding authority, expertise, and expertise yet he owns no Music Reproduction System at all! He conspires with the moderators of this forum to censor, limit, and restrict the expressions of ideas, opinions, and observations that conflict with his own from which he operates in a world of complete and utter fear, cowardice, and shame. I have argued before that he is not worthy of this group or it's other members, contributors, and commentators, yet he continues his mission of ignorance and misinformation. I happen to know this guys REAL NAME and would be happy to share with anyone who pm's me I have his address and phone too we could show up at his house and teach him a thing or too but I will not be back in the US for a few months so that will have to wait. let's go mijostyn let's stick it to this guy!
