As one who has spent an entire afternoon trying to help a disabled friend align his new Dynavector Karat in his WT Reference tonearm, I believe I am qualified to say "he got it wrong". For those who don't know, the DV Karat has a VERY short cantilever; thus its bolt hole to stylus tip distance is odd, and its alignment is way off in the WTR tonearm. To compound the problem, not only are the cartridge mounting holes fixed at the distal end, but also it is nigh impossible to mess with the spindle to pivot distance, at the other end. (We tried to rotate the base in order to compensate for the problem at the headshell end.) In the final analysis, my friend and I decided not to care about alignment, once we got it as good as it could get. But the WTR tonearm is also over-damped and, at best, vague with regard to azimuth setting and stability of same. I am not a big fan.
