Long headshell required


Greetings from Oz!

I have a turntable and arm combination where I need to use a longer headshell to fully optimize the alignment.  Most headshells are effectively 50mm as you are aware.  I would like 60mm or even a little more length.

Appreciate your suggestions

Changing the overhang will not in any way affect P2S distance. I don't think the headshell you seek exists.

You are right, @solypsa. Good catch! But my point is the same - increasing overhang won't offset a misaligned P2S distance.

I don't think you can offset a P2S distance that is too short by increasing overhang, @koala.

Are you talking about a common universal headshell? If so, your request suggests something else is off in your alignment, such as the P2S distance. It might help to know the pickup arm that you are using.
