Richardkrebs,very informative, thanks for taking the time to post.I have learned first hand that specific tables I have either owned and/or have listened to don't meet even your number 1), not sure about the other two.I do like what you wrote that... 
Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm
Peterayer,A distance for sure is important, I have been doing this very easily for a while now and if the table isn't close to a wall I just use 2 light rulers and tape them to the back of the table stand along with a pce of paper between the two ...

Mikeba316,not trying to get off topic but just replying.Have you roled any of the tubes in your Vac? specially in the phono section? If not you should. I've heard the Alnic, both individules you mention do have financial interest in the product an...

Micro Seiki, or TW AC-1
Non of my AC tables that I owned including the Black Knight were capable to be set-up spot on for speed accuracy using the TimeLine. The controller just didn't allow this nor did it properly control. Why would you use other instruments that are no...

Dvdgreco,never compared it to any of those specific units you referred to. 
Abbingdon music research AMR cd-77 is how good?
I own a AMR 77.1 and I feel it's okay but I chuckle when now when looking back when some have refered to it competing with the best vinyl set-ups, remarks made suggesting it's as good or better. Really makes me wonder what they were comparing it t... 
CAT JL-3 Versus VAC phi 300.1 monos?
Soundwise, I don't agree with your suggestion that CAT stands above all in the amp dept. Nor do I agree that there is anything that is the "BEST". That statement ALONE is laughable and only individules with little experience fall for such.I actual...
