Well tempered question?

I gave up. My dear friend is not using the WTR any longer. He and I watch movies instead.

LOL.

Holy Crap! This ain't NASCAR boys. Use Well Tempered fluids ONLY. The wrong fluid could dissolve the plastic paddle or bearing points. Once installed you never mess with it unless you have to ship the table or it can't be moved carefully.

There are two different labeled fluids used in a Well Tempered table. The thinner one is used in the platter cup while the thicker is used in the tonearm cup.

The platter bearing cup should be approximately be 5/8 full. The distance from the inner edge of the cup to the fluid should be approximately 7/8". Slide the spindle into the cup making sure the bottom of the spindle is resting on the bottom bearing point. The fluid level must cover the top set of bearing points when the spindle is in the cup.

Before you install the fluid in the tonearm cup the filament adjustments need to be checked. For the flat paddle with two large holes the paddle should not touch the cup when the arm is resting on the (not spinning) plater with an LP on it or approximately 1/8-1/4 inch from the bottom of the cup.

The arm should be at approximately a 2 degree incline (fine tune later).

The shaft attaching the paddle to the tonearm should be vertical.

Once this has been checked and/adjusted install the tonearm damping fluid slowly letting it settle. The flat paddle should be covered by 1-2mm of fluid after it has settled.

Unlike chattery mechanical tonearms the Well Tempered arm must be handled slowly when queuing up a record.

Yes Vicdamone is right... the Well Tempered™ fluid uses very special Semantic Molecule™ technology that uses special atoms from a virgin source that is completely different from other 'Silicone' fluids ... in fact the laws of chemistry and physics are completely different (as you well know) for high end audio as compared to anything else in the known universe ... :P
