I have my suspicions about this approach. The easiest way to "break" this concept is to put on an LP that is not perfectly centered. Each time the eccentricity comes around the stylus gets slammed from one side to the other because the servo cannot react properly. Now it may very well play perfectly pressed LPs beyond amazement, but the design does seem to limit what LPs could be enjoyed.
Servo Controlled Arm
I've purchased a JVC QL-Y3F Turntable )bought originaly in 1983) with servo controlled arm. As I've been reading about tonearms and compliance it has made me curious why the servo controlled arm didn't catch on. I have a Denon DL160 cartridge and it hasn’t even considered skipping. Now that I've listened for a considerable length of time I'm curious what other people have to say.
Sincerely,
