Short of buying a 400 dollar digital level, what have you found that really does the trick. I've tried various cheap bubble levels with fair to poor results.
Markpao- Being a carpenter- you should know that you must turn any bubble 180 degrees to confirm level. I have to send my Stabila levels to Germany every year or 2 to be dialed in. They are ALWAYS off a bit -
Pied, I use the plinth because that's what the arm is mounted on, not the platter. Might not be the right train of thought, but it makes sense to me to level the surface that the arm is on. Example, say the platter is different from the plinth by a degree. Well, if you level the platter, now the plinth is off, and so is the arm. This could cause the arm to want to swing because it's off.
buy some level of just a vial that has clear precision specs from manufacturer, usually from Japan, Europe, USA, Canada Level the turntable, not the plinth. Ideally the tonearm headshell and turntable should be level.
