I'm not sure what a "stable balance" arm is as opposed to a "neutral balance" arm. I think that virtually all pivoted arms will exhibit this trait-I know mine does. You can drive yourself crazy with this stuff if you let it. I don't have any VTA on the fly capability so I simply adjust VTF to be at the high end of the range I want with thicker pressings knowing I'll have a little less VTF with normal records.
I would be curious about the "neutral balance" of the Phantom though and whether or not it really eliminates this if anyone can elaborate.
