Questions on Overhang/Cartridge Alignment using Dr Feikert Protractor on VPI Classic 3
The MoFi Geo Disk for $50 is all you need. With this the alignment is achieved with the stylus at the same level as when playing a record. You could achieve the same exact thing by taping the free download onto an LP. To tell the truth, my Origin ... 
Seeking recommendations about material, design, makers of low-lying rack for gear
