VPI 10.5i - Which armwands do I own?

You say the one with the "slanted" azimuth ring can't be adjusted. I have one with the same azimuth ring, and it's adjustable. Did you loosen the two set screws holding it in place? It's still stiff to turn with the screws backed off, but it will move.

I find that even rotating the azimuth ring messes with the VTF on mine. And then resetting the VTF messes with the azimuth. It'd really be nice if VPI would key the counterweight to the arm on assemblies that have the azimuth ring. Even being as careful as possible, it's almost impossible to slide the counterweight without rotating it slightly.

I have a new cartridge due this week, I'm not looking forward to doing it all again.

I didn't know about the large allen screw in the rear of the arm, and I swear I RTFM! I saw the wrench, but thought I had adjusted everything that I could adjust without straying into the "void warranty if any other screws are messed with" territory.

That'll make it a lot easier to fine tune the VTF.

P.S. Thanks for the cart congrats, got a shipping notice today.

Ordered!
