RE: REVIEW: VPI Industries Prime Turntables

How many times do I have to say that the insanity in this business over arc protractors and alignment is total nonsense designed to sell arc protractors and make customers afraid of setting up there turntables.

This is a very simple process requiring no more than 15 minutes of setup time and a good pair of glasses. The spindle to pivot distance is irrelevant to anyone who has actually set up a few thousand cartridges and has heard what those differences actually are sonically. I align the cantilever, not the cartridge, not the cartridge location.,

This is no different than a doctor telling you your pressure is high but not giving you the numbers, he keeps you in the dark so he has all the answers and you need him more than you actually do. COME ON VINYL LOVERS, YOU CAN DO IT YOURSELF, YOU DO NOT NEED EXPERTS TO SET UP A TONEARM. Watch the VPI videos and you will get it 99% right.
