Does anyone get turntable set-up?

The various parameters of turntable set-up(this includes the cartridge)are just that-possible starting points. Maybe start there. Then slightly change something(that does't mean buy something). Does it sound better-do not listen for something specific. Don't listen to something specific-that is incorrect. If you are not sure, sleep on it. Does it make you want to listen more to it or not? It's all about brain-waves. I offer this in the interest of music.
