The voltmeter azimuth adjustment really seems to be a crap shoot without a filter ("low pass" I believe) to eliminate the bounce in the DMM reading. Others have mentioned that this is easily built from Radio Shack parts but I haven't come accross instructions on how this is done. Does anyone know where to access information on how to construct one of these. Without it, it's really a guess as to which numbers to go with for calculating cross talk. For this reason, I currently start with the azimuth level and adjust by ear if it seems necessary. Wooten, you may want to have a filter ready before you try the DMM method.
Cartridge upgrade for VPI Scoutmaster
Hello All!
I have a VPI Scoutmaster with a Dynavector 20XH. My phonostage, pre amp, and amps are all Pass Labs. IC cables are Harmonic Technology Magic, and speaker cables are Harmonic Technology Magic Tweeter and Pro-9+ in a bi-wired configuration. VSA speakers. My stereo goal- realism.
I have two questions I was hoping to get help with.
1. What would be a great low to medium output cart for my set-up? 2K or less. And why.
2.How risky is it to buy a used cart. Is it worth the $ saved?
Thanks for your input!
