Just wanted to add from my direct experience and conversations with other people that use PODS. Most do not have 4 pods set up ready to go like Henry does.
So others change these PODS in and out with different tonearms and cartridges frequently - weekly to monthly for some who prefer certain tonearms/cartridges with different music.
To these people - aligning a tonearm/cartridge on a pod takes literally all of 1 or 2 minutes. You move the whole pod around till its lined up. Hence their popularity, flexibility and advantage, regardless of the better sonics being discussed here.
So IMO - the theory of these microscopic movements never comes into play here. It’s a moot point based on the vinyl POD persons habits.
I can also add from my direct experience and I know that D is aware of this. Unlike a pivot arm - a linear tracker tells you right away if something is out. In fact it screams it. If it is not dialed in, it is like watching TV in the old days with an antennae – remember the haze around the image until you moved the antennae around to get the image clear.
Cheers Chris
