Feickert Protractor - anyone use one?


Looking around, I came across the Dr Feickert protractor.

Does anyone have one and is it worth the price and does it really help you setup your TT better than other standard mats?

You can read through my thread on this subject in the archives, to date over 14,000 veiws.

However, you want far and away better precision for less then half the price?, look up MintLp in the archives preferably Stringreens thread on the subject.
Top class. My favourite vinyl set up tool and beautifully made. It will last a lifetime.

very easy to use. the nice thing about it is that it is not dedicated to one arm as the mint lp or walltractor tools are.
Love my Feickert. Used it for a few different arms now. Works like a charm and I never have to worry about what arm I decide to use down the road as it will work for everything and has the curves for a couple of different mounting approaches, if your interested in that.
Cartridge alignment is only one aspect of a turn table set up, however crucial.

Agree, the Feikert protractor is convenient for set up of multiple brands of tone arms and cartridges, at best, a handy tool for a dealer.

Now think about this , with all the work and expense involved with analogue play back and as critical as cartridge alignment is.
Why would anyone stop short of precisly dialing in their cartridge with a Feikert when high precision protractor's like the Wally or MintLp are available?....Again I refer you to member Stringreen's thread on the MintLp.
