Anybody have the Feickert Adjust + program?

Hi @all,

just a quick information. The software is sold directly and as Gene already mentioned we had some prolems getting the packages to your end.... This now is solved and we offer FedEx shipping for an additional 20,- EURO. We sell through our Online shop (http://shop.adjustplus.biz). Prices are only given in EURO but you can PayPal the money into our account which speeds up everything.

@Audiotomb: What desirable is left open? See, as long as the customers don't give feedback we cannot know what they wish.....

@Gene: Do not use 44,1 kHz - it's too inaccurate.

Cheerio,

Chris

the feikert is a well crafted piece and a welcome addition to my audio analog tool kit

your spindle to pivot length work is fabulous
and well worth the price for that alone

the grid under which you align the cartridge is nearly impossible to site correctly. The grid lines are distracting not complementary. You can get close for a lot of cartridges and should be commended for that, but it's hard to accurately square and for very sensitive to alignment cartridges like my ZYX Universe I needed further precision

the mint uses paralax site line effect - you know when you are perfectly aligned and is much more precise in it's alignment measurements

then again it is made for each specific table and arm setup

I own and use both - feiker - pivot length
mint - fine tune alignment

for a quick setup of a friends table - the feickert worked good - a very adaptable piece. I used it exclusively with good results on my previous table - Nottingham Spacedeck

to get the maximum finese out of my galibier/triplanar/universe
a custom made mint protractor was necessary and worth every penny

Just to clarify, part of the delay in getting Adjust Pro + was not an issue with Chris. The xxxx post office! I am not sure whether German or the U.S. post office is at fault but when I went to visit my local office to inquire, it was a nightmare. The line was wrapped around outside the office and 2 workers with no manager in site. I waited 2 hours just to get a "I don't know" stare from the employee.

The program is great. I've had more time to use it and the calibration ability is really useful.

I'll have to upgrade my PC to handle 96kHz and 24 bit, though. It takes quite a bit of horsepower.

Ok, I see some bells and whistles targeting some specific tasks associated with tonearm/cart setup. But, really, can't I do most of the important stuff with any decent RTA software? How do I justify $500 usd plus another $40 usd in shipping? I already have TrueRTA that I use to setup my entire system. The max'ed out version is only $100 usd.

And, "As a result you get a minimized crosstalk and it is set to be consistent on both channels." Can you please explain this? I've never seen/heard crosstalk from a cartridge that sounded right when both channels were "set to be consistent". Perhaps I just don't understand what this means.

Dan_ed, adjusting the cartridge and tonearm is straightforward when you see the program in action, and the proof is in the listening. If you are certain of just as good results using some other tools, go for it. The option a lot of people may prefer is to find someone with the software to do the work for them for a reasonable fee.
