And ... I've found that the better you get your other setup parameters (e.g. use an arc protractor), the less you're bothered by slight VTA changes.

I'm far more bothered by bad alignment (e.g. overhang/pivot-spindle/offset) along with azimuth misalignment than I am with VTA that's slightly off.

This was the subject of a heated discussion at 3am after the Audiofest with two of my house guests.

Oh yeah ... buy what you like (musically) and fuggedabout what everyone tells you to like.

Cheers,
