Cartridge Alignment HELP


I am trying to align my new Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge on my Audio Technica AT-PL120 turntable, but I don't know how. I understand that I can use the protractors posted on Vinyl Engine, but I don't know how to use them. I can't find any videos or specific instructions; the closest I can find just say to "align it."

But how? How EXACTLY do I align my cartridge?

Hello all,
But the question arises concering the original poster, the Mo-Fi Geodisc I know uses Baerwald Null Geometry, and in most cases, many of these Japanese Tables were designed instead to optimally use Stevenson Null Geometry.

I know it's a subject where there may be different personal choices, that either may work, and either will have thier advantages, and disadvantages.

I'd bet the boys over at audio-karma will be quite familiar with this model. It may be as simple as placing the Stylus so many mm (perhaps 49mm or 52) from the rubber gasket of the end of headshell, and then just square the Cartridge in headshell? Mark
