Graham Phantom on TW Acustic Raven?


I'm finally about to get my TW Acustic Raven AC-1. Is there experience and shared information on how to set up a Graham Phantom Mk II on a TW Acustic Raven AC-1 to share with me? I've always had a table where I just precisely drilled the TT location hole right into the plinth by a template. I'm no dummy, having mounted arms for over 30 years, but his TW set up looks a just little trickier with it's movable arm board. Is it? Any pitfalls?

I used a Feickert for mine and it was pretty straight forward. Select the appropriate effective length, pivot the arm board with the arm mounted until it lines up with the center of the bearing cup, then go through the painfully detailed process of aligning the cart and you're good to go.

Or, you can use the Graham supplied jig thing but when I compared it with the Feickert, one of them was off and the Feickert setting sounded much better so I'm guessing it was the jig that wasn't quite perfect or I have tin ears and like a poorly set-up table... I guess anything is possible. :-)

Great combo, I'm sure you'll love it.... I sure do!
