Tonearm relative to Plinth alignment

I agree with Bdgregory. If you can rotate the arm without changing the distance from pivot-center to spindle-center, that would work. But it is only an aesthetic issue! The outer edge of the plinth could be cut at any angle and this would not affect the turntable's function (e.g., the edges of the "box" could be cut to make a triangle, or a cirlce if that were aethetically sought).

Bdgregory, on the basic plus tonearm, there is a slot on the cylinder that only allow you to adjust the height, but one can not rotate it, so alignment to plinth can not be adjusted

now I see . . . this is different than the Linn Ittok, and Audioquest PT6 I previously owned. With those it's very easy to create this alignment issue(which I have done when not paying attention). As noted, it's aesthetics, not function, so if there isn't an easy solution then leave it alone.

Thanks for your responses, everyone.

Dear Dusty: Like every one told you: If the overhang don't change then you don't have any trouble about, my only complaint is about the skating function because some tonearms has this function in a way that the antiskate grow-up all the way LP surface ( increment/higher at the inside grooves ) and the tonearm has to be a initial position ( outside groove ) where the AS is 0 ( cero ), if this is the case with your tonearm then you have to change the position for in the very outside record groove the AS measure cero.



Regards and enjoy the music.
