Raking Angle


Do you all setup you analog systems so that the raking angle of the stylus is perpendicular to the record surface? I'm having a hard time achieving such an angle due to the design of my tonearm and cartridge and believe this may be the cause of some slight sibilance in the sound.

Audiofeil yes they are very different but they are both adjusted by the same means. change the VTA and you also change the SRA.
Try a thicker mat,or a few records stacked carefully,to raise the cartridge to see if that is the problem.I don't know if that will change it(SRA)enough,but it's a quick easy experimental trial.
You can also put a spacer under the rear of the cartridge to change the rake. This will change the angle without moving the tonearm.

I did not say they were adjusted differently.

What's your point?
