What is you tonearm’s Maximum Distortion?

Thanks to those who posted their figures. It is much appreciated.

@intactaudio  : Yes.

Since we are considering the theoretical, your proposed alignment simply looks like Löfgren A if you cheat the inner groove radius to 75mm and the outer groove to 143mm which is not realistic for all but the smallest selection of music.  Distortion at the 60.325mm inner groove point will be a fair bit over 2%

I do not get the calculator to work.

I enter in effective length 233.7, overhang 17.2 and offset angle 22.953° with Löfgren B.

And in the calculations and table it spits out today different offset angle  and overhang than I have entered.

I think that the calculator is totally worthless when it spits out data that is not my offset angle  and overhang. (And it doesn't calculate with the provided indata)

So those that got some output did you look that the indata were used is intact or were there their own made up values from the calculator itself!

Or am I missing something here?

@optimize   in order to enter your desired overhang and offset you need to tick the "custom" option or the program will calculate for the 'standard' alignment ticked.

Also the number you enter into the initial arm length will autofill to the remaining three so make sure the same P2S / EL dot is ticked for all 4.  

For your calculation enter 233.7 in Arm 1 Arm Length and tick the effective length dot for all 4 arms.  Then Click the Arm 1 custom dot and enter your desired overhang and offset angles and the results will compare 'your alignment' to the big three.
