I'm trying out a DP6. Do I just trust the Moerch (non-precision armwand) alignment method of lining up the stylus tip with the leading edge? Or has anyone out there used a particular protractor successfully?
Moerch method ?? No, I haven't tried it, and I can't see how it can be accurate. I used the Clearaudio protractor which is not so precision. The MintLP is arc protractor where you can zero in. But you need a very good eye sight. I always have a hard time using it. I'll be getting the Uni protractor in a near future.
When you get your MintLP, you can check how way off you are. The beauty of Mint is that arc start almost at the spindle and extend way beyond your platter. You won't need any special skill, just patience.
