The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position


This question is for Dover. I would prefer our ''heighest authority'' Carr but

am reluctant to bather his with possible silly question. Dover however,

whom I regard as ''second authority'' , is used to answer also silli questions.

Now my assumption is that damper to which coills are ,say, pressed

by tension wire  balance cantilever/stylu combo in  ''all directions'';

left and right and above and below . BUT they also MUST FOLLOW

the GROOVES.

My observation however is that also ''deviant'' cantilevers which

nobody would buy look STRAIGHT IN DE GROOVE. Ergo:: it is

the groove which determine cantilevet/stylus position .?

I believe that getting the stylus angle to the groove correct is paramount to good sound, but inconsistencies in manufacturing stylus to cantilever and cantilever to body(?) can cause subpar alignment.  So I'm going to use WAM Engineering to calculate via microscope the optimal angle to set my cartridges in order to get the stylus to align accurately with the groove.  This obviously doesn't apply to spherical styluses.  

Do WAM make house calls? How else can they succeed in your stated goal?

@nandric These evaluations being made by yourself, on the idea certain Cart's are not being effected by deterioration as a result of having a long life since being issued and used are heavily laden subjective opinion, as it is for anybody who makes their evaluations known about Cart's with a long life behind them since being new.

There is also the idea once more forming, that an effort is being made for creating a self-advantageous position. It does seem that by giving such subjective appraisal that negates the idea, flaw is developing, will assist with maintaining or even ascending the financial value of the Cart'. Adding the idea that there is also a rarity of such Cart's will always be good for the achievement to be realised.

I'm throwing cautiousness to the wind, I no longer see how this Thread has anything to do with the OP, it seems to me, that it is leaning toward the notion that a priming is being undertaken for an upcoming event, the ground is being tested for producing a convincing theory.

Attempt's are appearing to be made, to create the suggestion that Cart's with deterioration resulting from wear and tear, are worthy of having an amplified Value placed on it. Especially, if there is also the intent to add some other versions of a romanticism about the origin of the Cart' being included in a description to a party showing a interest. The question is how much value can be added, especially, if the addition of the added Value is to be seen as being converted into a asking price.  

  

 

kennes, I don't believe I mentioned ''stylus angle'' in my thread. 4 variables

are obviously not sufficient for you. The most people can hardly handle

2 as the sentnce form prove : X is P. In place of variable X one can put

whatever name one like and in place of P as predicate varibale whatever

''property'', ''qualification'',or ''condemnation'', one want. My point was

that the cantilever must follow ''YOUR STYLUS'' in both directions: vertical

as well horizontal while this is allowed by damper's elasticity in both named

direction. If the cantileevr /stylus combo refuse to do so than either the

damper is dry out or to soft . In this case whatever shape your stylus may

have you will not get any sound from all 4 variables values, 

Dear Lew, You should not use American abreviation by addressing 

foreigners who already have difficulty to undertsanr your eloquent

English.''As simple as possible but not simpler ''as you ever stated

to be your credo. I have no idea what WAM means.
