Azimuth question


I was recently checking the azimuth setting on my cartridge with a test record in which track 2 should be left channel only and track 3 is right channel only. Well, I was trying to listen to each channel to see if I can hear any crosstalk and then I realized that my new VAC Sigma has 2 bias lights that light up for each channel when music is being played.

My question is,if I did not see any light on the right channel lights when playing track 2'of the test record and no light,on the left channel lights when playing track 3, can I conclude that my azimuth is properly set or is this just a very blunt indicator of crosstalk?

Thanks for the insights.

I have been thinking about getting a Foz. I also have a 3d arm on order so I want to make sure I do this right.
Thanks again. Your review of the 3d arm is what motivated me to take the plunge so I will definitely take your advice on the Foz.
Yes. I saw Mickey's article. Looks like calibration is a must.

Anyway, I put my order in and should be receiving my Foz shortly. Not sure when I'll receive my 3d arm though. Still haven't received confirmation from VPI that they got my order. Seems like they're real busy these days.
