catcher10, the problem with the cross-talk method is it is really only accurate if the cartridge is manufactured properly, and even then works best with simpler stylus designs.

I'm getting into analog (in a serious approach not just playing vinyl on any turntable) and this discussion turned out to be very informative. Reading through it what lewm states makes a lot of common sense and I'm planning on following that approach.

I missed something with cleeds, did he was threatened through a PM?

No, I was threatened right here on this thread. The posts were deleted and the two users given a "time out." Pathetic.

Easy to miss. Only the OP gets notified for all posts. I do appreciate all of the non rude viewpoints.  Except for the smartass sarcastic idiotic ones. 

After having reviewed the entire thread it would seem to me cleeds that you might own certain people and apology. I don't condone hot headed behavior and some people do have an unnecessarily short fuse. But, it does seem to me that you have a hard time admitting you are wrong. I think it would be sporting if you had those people re instituted. Threatened? what were they going to do. Cut your ears off? 
This thread has gotten way too complicated for the subject which is about as simple as it gets. A degree one way or another is not going to make any difference what so ever. All it takes is a good eye and a mirror and you are in business. If you do not have a good eye get someone who does.  $300.00 (fozzgometer) buys a lot of records or a nice dinner out with the wife so you can get away with buying more records. A dozen roses also helps. Us ladies love flowers🥰
