Henry,
Most people believe I'm very much on my own. Why disappoint them? ;-)
Do remember that our cartridge reached this stage in small steps. We did not wake up one morning and ask, "What would happen if we dropped VTF from 1.70 to 1.20?".
Of course there's no reason to believe 1.50g or any other randomly selected number will be optimal. That's neither science nor craft nor even art, its guessing.
IME with 10-12 UNIverses, each one's VTF is best adjusted using the protocol I've posted before: find its mistracking point on very dynamic passages, work very slightly upwards from there by listening.
Have fun!
Doug
BTW, if you can play a UNIverse (or any cartridge) with "negative VTA", we'd all like to see photos. ;-)
