Sumiko Premier MMT Arm VTA?


I have an AR ES–1 TT with a Sumiko Premier MMT arm with a Sure V–15V MR cartridge which is a good match with no VTA adjustment needed. This arm has no VTA adjustment but I have been told there is a conversion kit for my arm to upgrade to a VTA adjustable unit.Is this so and where can I get one? I might want to change cartridge types and would probably need to adjust the VTA. If not what are my options?(shims) Any suggestions or contact information would be helpful.Thanks

Viridian is right, but the access to the set-screw adjustment is hidden unless you know where to look. Look at the outer rim of the MMT's mounting base, about 30 degrees counter-clockwise from the cue device indentation -- you'll find an unmarked HOLE. The adjustment can be accessed by an Allen (5/64, I think) wrench. Caution, the arm will drop as soon as you loosen the set-screw.
Best of luck,

Viridian, just love that deck of cards solution!!!!!!What a time and temper saver.
Viridian, you are right, I feel like an Idiot. I set this unit up myself new and replaced the horrible stock arm myself with present one. That was a life time ago and several moves and divorce and mondo memory loss and obviously I no longer have the paper work. The table has been in safe storage for years. I am currently rediscovering my vinyl(from early 60s–late 80s). Any way,I mounted the arm with the set screw at the very rear of the arm base 180°from cueing arm post. I couldn't feel it with my thick,calloused,clubby fingers and had to turn the whole table around for a visual check(now must reset and level).Thanks all for your interest and input. I really like this table and am considering tweaks and such rather than buying a new table, any suggestions?? mats, cones, sorbothane feet,etc, what do you guys like??
