Azimuth 2020


How do you set your cart's azimuth in the 21st century?

HI,
@fuzztone when bought the V I knew its shortcoming but I prefered the extra rigidity it would provide. I have tried small pieces of biz cards under the headshell with carts needing further azimouth adjustment but I gave up as I did not like the idea in the end and sold any out of norm. I prefer to have everything else absolute and skip azimouth as I don't consider it the holy grail.  When I set up an arm with this ability for a friend I do it by ear with the aid of a good mirror. I have no issues with my current Zyx its nearly vertical (my platter is dished 1 degree) and sounds so with an amazing height. 


Feikert is NOT the only option as there is a new kid on the block that DOES give you crosstalk figures in .1 db.  Actually mine dropped 5.1 db matched after a .1 db boost to the left channel. 
Just sayin'
Not holy grail, more like holy crap.
I used the Foz with its accompanying record and found that there is no adjustment more important in making the speakers disappear.  The Foz is easily done with great results.....be sure to use a new battery every time.
