Tonearm adjustments on the fly


I've looked in the archives, but as yet I have yet to find a devoted thread on this topic. I was wondering which tonearms allow for easy adjustments of VTA, SRA, azimuth, and such on the fly, i.e. without having to go through a lot of effort to make changes, like unscrewing a tonearm from the mount in order to raise the tonearm, etc. I know that Reed tonearms allow for this, but what other ones do?

Probably not what you’re looking for but my Schiit Sol has all of those features and punches way above its weight in the sound quality category. Mine was the last run of pure b-spec after all their beta testing improvements and then went through with the recommended upgrades and a great cartridge for my budget. Biggest difference in the sound quality came from proper vta/sra and the azimuth. Getting that right will get the tonal balance spot on and makes that center image snap perfectly in place. I know lots of the hifi crowd scoff at Schiit for their focus on reasonable cost gear but holy crap does it sound good. If you like tinkering to always try and get a little better performance and if you can get your hands on one, they’re worth it for sure. Just my thoughts as I sit here tapping my toes to the music.
