Thanks for the reminder of the Hi-Fi Test lp.
Anti-Skate: Pete Riggle Engineering: A good read
I skimmed it, then later found the time to read it enough to know it’s worth passing on to anyone interested.
Anti-skate definitely needed, often overdone, perfection never achieved, less important for longer arms.
Note: he gives info about, and recommendations how to handle anti-skate, says his PRAMS device is only intended for the fastidious among us.

Hi-Fi News Test LP has 4 tracks for anti-skating (bias) adjustment: Bias setting ( 300 Hz tone L+R at + 12 db ) 0:15 Bias setting ( 300 Hz tone L+R at + 14 db ) 0:15 Bias setting ( 300 Hz tone L+R at + 16 db ) 0:15 Bias setting ( 300 Hz tone L+R at + 18 db ) 0:15 At the moment I'm using "12 inch FR-66fx tonearm without anti-skating. |
What came first the Wally Skater or the PRAMS? Good read, thanks for the post. The Wally Skater and the PRAMS look almost identical. I use the Wally Skater myself. Easy to use. Getting your anti skate setup properly makes listening to music more enjoyable. These 2 devices are so similar I would think one copied the other? Respectfully Joe |
