Mint Protractor for VPI JMW 12.6 tonearm

Just use the stock VPI alignment protractor.

The VPI gives minimum offset error across the "entire" side of the record, unlike other protractors, and yields the best sound IMO!

Harry knows best, even though there is disagreement around arm alignment. I have tried other alignments but always go back to the official VPI method.

Hi Bas, Yip from the MintLp has the data of the most TT's
and tonearms. You should ask him first. I ordered two protracors for my Kuzma Stabi Ref. + Triplanar + Reed 2A.
He needed only the data about the Reed.

Regards,

I use both for my JMW 10 arm wands. The VPI jig will allow you to quickly and easily set overhang and overall cartridge geometry.

The MintLP protractor will allow you to align the geometry to the cantelever, as opposed to the cartridge body with the VPI jig. It's a very useful tool and well worth the cost, IMHO.
