Turntable leveling


Pardon the possible obtuseness of the question, but - in the opinion of forum readers - how important to sound quality, LP and stylus wear is having my turntable precisely level? Try as I might, I can't get it <2 degrees from absolutely horizontal measuring with the Levlx iOS app though it looks good with a bubble gauge. I've looked online and I can't find a consensus opinion on this matter though I know the more level the better.
Thanks in advance,Keith

... because I can detect 0.25mm VTA
Not likely, especially because common LPs aren't flat within .25mm. If you're convinced you can hear a deviation that slight, it suggests that your stylus may be chipped or damaged. That could account for your claim.
