Never had any luck with passives...  far inferior to my Ayre preamp. 
What is more accurate , the fozgometer or the diplay of the oscilloscoop
..just read the piece about adjusting azimuth by ear.....   Why bother...if you can get it right easily enough with a foz....loosening screws, adjusting weights, moving things....why risk bending a perfectly good stylus by mistake....why test in a...
