Tonearm relative to Plinth alignment

I have a Linn Basik turntable with a Linn Basik Plus tonearm (bought separately), and when the tonearm is in its arm rest it is not completely parallel with the side of the turntable. It appears to be a few degrees on its way to the platter. There are 3 holes in the table for the screws to the base of the tonearm, and they must be rotated a little bit.

Will this affect the sound of the turntable?

Thanks,
Dusty

Dear Dusty: Like every one told you: If the overhang don't change then you don't have any trouble about, my only complaint is about the skating function because some tonearms has this function in a way that the antiskate grow-up all the way LP surface ( increment/higher at the inside grooves ) and the tonearm has to be a initial position ( outside groove ) where the AS is 0 ( cero ), if this is the case with your tonearm then you have to change the position for in the very outside record groove the AS measure cero.



Regards and enjoy the music.
