2nd pivot for VPI 3D

kindly post your findings gshepard.....thanks

jjss49....scan(m?) /improvement.....you should choose your words more carefully - (and check your spelling).   I have spoken to reviewers who say the 2nd pivot is a great improvement on a product already tops in it abilities.  I also heard from some that its a pia to install...  asking for feedback from those who know what they are talking about.

I've been reading everything I could about this mod....it seems to be universally accepted as a pretty significant improvement.   I have a 3D with a Winfield installed, and now am a bit concerned about the question that low compliance cartridges are a better match.   I have never heard that before.  I haven't bought it yet...not because of the cost, but it would be disturbing the setup I now have which sounds good to me.  I'll continue reading these posts

Thanks Bill.....an important adjustment on the 3D (really any arm) is the azimuth adjustment.  If more pressure is provided with that second pivot, am I wrong in suspecting that the azimuth would be disturbed?.  When I use my Foz in the setting up of the arm, this adjustment was critical...from very good sound to WOW.  I want to keep the wow....or do you compensate with the counter intuitive....

Thanks Bill....I'll give it a try.
