off-set angle between A and B is the same what changes is the overhang. Zenith change I never seen the measured, no problem.   We can’t introduce more variables as zenith, LP off-center, micro waves, macro waves, VTF, VTA, AZ, and the like. Issu...

Important issue is stylus tip angle. Now, Löfgreen A to B alignment amkes almost no significant tracking distortion level modification ( only changes where the levels change between null points. ) and still lower than no-offset angle tonearm desig...

And please don't forget too how good or not the tonearm is self  damped by design.

That's why too cartridge compliance and frequency ( cartridge/tonearm )  resonance are so critical an important in the grooves tracking issues.   R.

Dear @richardkrebs : For me the main issue it’s not if we can see that the cantilever move to the rigth side ( the tonearm ASmechanism helps a little gainst that " rigth side " magnitude. ) the main issue for me is if the stylus tip is in the groo...

Forgot: what you like is not the true issue ( at least with me. Yous did not get my point. ) but what is wrong or good.   R.

Again, not perfect but second best option behind the LT, that's all.   What you like is what you like and it's not my " business " and I can't disagree with what you like. End of dialogue because you never posted any fact/measurements for what y...

Dear @lewm : Seems to me that you " die for " the skating force and nothing wrong with that.   Now, LT tonearms appeared for one main critical reason ( where skate develoved was not in that " equation ". ) that was and is that the mounted cartri...

Dear @reimarc : Well , I will no drink to that and let me explain what I posted.   "  how do you actually know what exactly is encoded in the LP grove? Unless you have the master tape side by side.  "   I never posted that kind of statement wh...

Dear @dogberry : No, I’m not suggesting nothing like that but only my mistake ( sorry. ) and misunderstood for your statement posted:   " I’m half regretting waking up this thread, especially as some find it hard to be civil. " I really don't c...

Dear @reimarc @lewm and friends: " I think the complete acoustic decoupling by the fluid bed plays an important role here....."   Way important along the tonearm arm wand O rings to tame additional resonances/distortions.. Well, in this thread ...

Dear @dover and friends : " if accurate alignment is your primary goal, ", well I don’t know other audiophiles but accurated alignment is the first step of other important steps in the whole cartridge/tonearm set-up that can puts me nearer/truer t...

Dear @theophile : No, he does not wrote that way but looks as he implicate that and many other things. Go figure and in good shape with lewm:   this is not the first time that he made a critic against an analog audio world icon of the Löfgreen ...
