What is the Best Tool to Measure Cartridge Azimuth?
I have a few test records in my collection, so I’ll have to check if any have the single channel 1kHz tones. I couldn’t imagine not having at least one good oscilloscope. For a long time it was a 20mHz Philips 2 channel with CRT, but I have a Tek ...

Congratulations Uber, you have arrived!

Geoffy is a lot more fun since he went off his meds again.

Machina Dinosaura toilet plunger feet Geoffy?

Why Geoffy, with rack feet decouplers of course!  
Nasty Static on Vinyl
Check your interconnects between the amp and preamp for continuity of ground. Also make sure you have your tonearm properly grounded to the phono stage.  
static Issues...anybody know why?
Geoffy the Static Troll: “(for which their is virtually no friction)”Ummm Geoffy, hel-loo, rpt, hel-loo, grab a dictionary! The word “their” is possessive, and “is virtually no friction” is not a noun. Get on the English literacy 🚂 choo choo 🚂!

Geoffy the fuse troll has resurfaced as geoffy the static troll and in other recent threads, geoffy the directionality troll. He is a champion of twisted thinking.  
Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer?
And a combination of a sax and a trumpet is ..... a strumpet. Just had to get that one in.

The doors never had a bass player. It was Manzarek’s organ.

The Fozgometer ostensibly could be replaced with a decent oscilloscope, so what is it’s benefit to someone who already owns a couple of high-end oscilloscopes? Don’t take my question as being combative, I’m just curious if the Fozgometer has any u... 
What is the Best Tool to Measure Cartridge Azimuth?
AnalogMagik looks intriguing but having to spend $750 plus another $75 plus tax, and no support unless you buy a “$150 Lenovo” from them seems extremely suspicious. You simply cannot get a usable laptop for $150. Their literature is written by som...

It would be prudent to check the platter ground to verify that the grounding at the spindle is intact. Don’t expect a zero ohm reading though.  
Who Has Technics Headshell with Azimuth Adjustment?
Thanks for your input everyone. Of course setup for correct azimuth is a great challenge for people with diminished eyesight. Please join in on a new thread that I’m starting on measurement tools for that task.  
Phono cartridge suggestions sought
+1 with rwortman. VM540ML is the same stylus as the VM740ML, and nearly the same cartridge body, at a couple hundred dollars cheaper. I have two VM540ML cartridges and I’m amazed how good they sound compared to lesser cartridges. The micro line pr...
