I would think that futzing with the VTA on every disc would distract from the enjoyment of listening to music, but I'm sure it also improves the sound quality. It takes all kinds.
The obsession, the trees. The music, the forest.
I read with interest two current threads on this board dealing with azimuth and VTA adjustments. Couldn't help but think that those of you obsessed with these adjustments may not be "hearing" the forest for the trees. Now I like great sound as much as the next guy. And I've taken great care to setup my cartridge, but there comes a time when I just want to listen to music and the settings simply fade into oblivion. I'm curious if you obsessive types ever really relax enough to simply enjoy the music? I surely hope so for your sakes.
