| VTA for a Dynavector 20X2L You might find this article informative/instructive: (http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/vinyl/messages/1240.html) This hobby SHOULD be fun! | |
| VTA for a Dynavector 20X2L @Austinbob- Not to be contentious, but- while having the tonearm parallel with the record is always THE place to start, VTF(too much or too little) can take VTA/SRA out of optimal angle easily. The Dyna's compliance of 12x10-6cm/dyn, isn't terribl... | |
