My experience with changing azimuth


After all the recent threads about adjusting azimuth here and on AA, I ran across an article written by Joel Durand, http://www.durand-tonearms.com/index.php?p=1_9_Azimuth-talk, on what to listen for when adjusting azimuth by ear. Fortunately, adjustment was fairly straightforward on my Triplanar using a Ella Fitzgerald mono LP. It only took ~10 minutes to dial in the correct setting, but it was the best 10 minutes I've spent in a long time. The differences are not subtle and am now spending the afternoon re-listening to all the subtleties that I've missed from having the azimuth off.

Doc,
Great, I'm glad my observations were helpful to you. The process does take some patience but it's worth the effort.
Cheers,
Joel
