How long does it take you to install a cartridge?


I have spent a at least a few to several hours installing a cartridge from beginning to end on my VPI table and was wondering how long it takes others.

Dear Peterayer: ++++ " There is also no azimuth adjustability which saves time.... " +++++

well, I think that that (save time. ) is very high trade off/"price " to pay against the cartridge quality performance level adjusted with the right azymuth: don't you think?

Regrads and enjoy the music,

I guess I am fortunate in not having to spend any time with cartridge set up.
My last two are Ortofon's purchased from High Water Sound.
Living within easy driving distance Jeffrey installed the cartridge for me which insures perfect setup.
Then we listen to great music
No more than 60 minutes, start to finish, to get it 90% there using a Mint, Wally, or UNI-Pro, followed by a Foz. The UNI-Pro is faster than the arc protractors but I only like it with some arms. The next 7% or so is refined over a day or two by ear. The remaining 3% lurks in the void of perpetual uncertainty. Hey, I'm an audiophile.

The typical bugaboo in the first 90% is whether the cartridge screws creep an iota as they fully tighten, shifting alignment. If the do, after the profanities, I start again.

Goldeneraguy....I would never trust a "pro" to set up my cartridge. He just isn't going to take the time, energy, and provide the listen (with your own components in your own room) to get the cartridge to sound its best.
