Stringreen, how is the 3D tonearm doing?

Hiendmuse.... there is a new and improved counterweight that is VERY easy to set up your arm. If you are comfortable with the way your arm is now, it is a non-issue, however, anyone getting a new VPI unipivot arm should absolutely request the new counterweight.

The SS CI Device is great for fine tuning once the weight & balance are roughed in. Getting to the roughed in point is difficult. Without the SS CI, set up would be impossible for me.

Is there a fine adjustment tracking weight screw inside the back end of the 3D arm as there is on the 10.5i arm?

Hiendmuse,
I don't see a set screw on the 3D.

Stringgreen,
Do you have the "new" weight for the 3D?
Mine came with the SoundSmith device but was still tough to get right.
How does the "new" counterweight work?
Thanks,
MaxH

I bought my Aries 3 in Feb '15 with the 3D arm and had to purchase the SS CI separately.  My 3D arm (a replacement from the original due to a bend in the arm) is the newest rendition and it does not have a fine adjustment on it.
