How long does it take you to install a cartridge?

The one thing I learned about the Mint LP and the painstaking time to get the overhang and zenith spot on is that in the end, the cantilever flexes anyway, hopefully offset by proper antiskating. It will never be perfectly straight for the whole LP side. What I am trying to say...overhang, very important to get spot on, zenith not so much...only the best you can and don't lose sleep over it. Just some deep groove thoughts.

It depends on who is doing it. LOL

I always try to weasel out of the task. Besides, I have friends who do it a lot better than I can.

(Otherwise, maybe thirty minutes.)

30 minutes and that is because I have to change resistors in my Phono Pre.
Use the KWIllis Protractor for easy accurate setup. Highly recommended.
