Azimuth and the Fozgometer
Hey Tom, agree the marketing, quality control and reports of users having problems have given this product a bad rap and rigtfully so. To the spectators if you could see and work through the above you would be rewarded with a nice tool. Another th... 
Azimuth and the Fozgometer
Madfloyd,The foz works as advertised, the problem is quality control from whomever is building them for fosgate. As stated above check to make sure the lugs for the meter are not shorting to the chassis. Mine was like this when received it, you co...

Halcro, your decription of Corby's armpod stability being questionable due to the amount of cantilevers involded surely contradicts your above response unless I am missing something.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1294870073&...

Nandic, the thought behind the design in something like Halcro and Corby's pod is 80-90% of the work. Even if there is no desire to own a CNC and that is outsourced it is still your mental labor that made it come together. You are lucky to have a ...

Thanks Corby, the final piece to me figuring your puzzle.I'm going to draw this up in emachineshop.com to get and idea in cost between stainlees and brass with the adjustable outriggers optional.It looks like your base is 3"h x 3"od?Halcro this co...

<<I changed it over and over again and checked and double checked against the TT-81 and all the arms I had.To make it even more difficult.....every arm has a different 'neutral' position from its base mounting as well as different extensions...

Hey Corby, I follow you. It also looks like the micrometer body was machined to screw into the top of the 1" shaft.If you ever tear it down take some pics.much appreciated Brad

Corby, you explained this in you prvious post to Halcro:the vta is adjusted using the micrometer ath the top of the post, there is a thumbscrew on the side that you would loosen first, adjust the height and then retighten the screw to lock everyth...

Lewn, my arm pod path would probably not be for the garrard. My 301 is currently in a slate plinth that won't be easily changed to accept another tonearm, the reason for building others to come soon.Here is the only example of one I ever seen on t...

Corby, maybe a lead ring at the base would help the problem with your panzerholtz pod.Do you have any breakdown pocs of your adjustable pod?Brad

Halcro, the size of your pod (180mm x 360mm cutout the side with 55mm hole for tonearm) is why the cost is so much to machine. What is the height? Building one similiar to ttweight is more inline of the cost of your casting.

Lew, I agree with you that idlers need a plinth thats why I said it wouldn't be a great idea. Now a idler with a plinth and arm pod that is the question.Chris, were those email request of guys wanting an arm pod for idlers that were nude or with a...
