MintLP revisited

Hi all,

Having done set up with the MintLP Best Tractor once, and been pleased with the results, I thought it time to see if I could glean a little better performance by going through the procedure again. Man, am I glad I did! This time around, I better understood how to achieve proper effective length, and thereby get the most accurate results. I think the improvement this time is greater than the first time around. As has been said many times before, what a fine, accurate tool this little device is, and only limited by the user's understanding, not to mention eyesight!

Best to all,
Dan

The problem was in that I failed to achieve the effective length and alignment with the cartridge parallel to the headshell. Even though the stylus lined up properly on all alignment points, without having the cartridge straight to begin with , things were still off a bit. Once I re-read the instructions, I was able to do this correctly, and it made all the difference. Amazing what you can learn if you just pay attention.

Best,
Dan
