| Mounting hole-to-stylus variation / tolerance Dear Axel: +++++ " The maths is correct! But life seems to beat it all the time.

| Influence of stylus shapes on distortion Dear Axel: You point out one of the distortion sources: alignment set-up, and we have to add VTF-matching tonearm/cartridge resonance frequency range-AS-load impedance-and the like.A stylus shape between its shape design has no self distortion oth... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: That threshold that I'm speaking is : through our each one ear/brain perception.Raul. | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: Now that you already try both VTF " ways " you have the opportunity ( on both ) to make a very fine tunning with the VTF set-up you like it more and through tiny VTA changes try to be near on the other sound characteristics that you li... | |
