Hi Sunnyboy,
There is no industry standard for height differential between platter and tonearm mounting plane, although turntables tend to be clustered fairly closely in this dimension.
The point is that a Tri-Planar setting of 5.5 on one turntable can be the equivalent of another turntable set at 6.25 (using an identical cartridge).
Use a level headshell as a starting point.
Cheers,
Thom @ Galibier
