A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Hi D – Does your Uni tangential alignment tool differ from the manufacturers one at all ?

The tool I actually use for measurement is a customized one that has a fine thin line etched into the material. The stylus fits into it or it doesn’t. The pic I posted was the manufacturers one as u know. Thought it looked like a nice two lane highway per post reference ? I have found with the sp10 chassis 7.5 inches is the "middle of the road" when measured from the left side for the ET 2.5.

Hi Lew – if you choose to order the Kuzma 4 point tonearm online with a computer – pls be careful when checking off the options boxes. You don’t want to end up receiving one of Mr Kuzma’s brass arm pods in the mail too ? But I have to admit I would pay to see a picture of your face if you opened up the box to find one inside? :>)

All
I am going to have a plate welded to the bottom of my brass arm pod to accept the DIN connection right at the pod. Can anyone tell me if I better off to use a different metal other than brass for this plate. (sonically speaking ) Anyone have any thoughts on this ? Was planning on brass ?
Much appreciated.

Cheers Chris

Chris,
FWIW, a friend swears by phosphor bronze.

If this advice follows the logic of Rauls recommendations
( not p but q)some of us will get fantastic arm pods for cheap. My only worry is the high cost of postage from Australia to Europe

I already called dibs on those Nikola – sorry – right Henry ?

Hi D – I apologize – should have posted my question in the Uni-Protractor thread about the tangential alignment tool.

Hi T Bone - An all Phosphor-Bronze POD ?

That's what my armpods are made of.....phosphor bronze.
Sounds good to me :^)
