In Reply to: RE: Do You Have a Favorite Disk for Setting VTA/SRA? posted by Dman on October 14, 2014 at 09:57:21
A valve gap gauge for automotive use does an excellent job of measuring the height between the arm and the collar, making it easy to repeat/reproduce the VTA setting on a Linn arm.
Here is what it looks like:

It isn't attached to the arm, nor can one adjust it during play ($1 million Obama-dollars to anyone who can prove it to me otherwise! LOL).
This below is one of my "soon, but not quite yet" items on my audio wish list-

A solid connection at the arm collar is critical to the sound quality of an LP12, so on-the-fly VTA isn't an option. I guess I don't see how using a tool is "cheating." You need an Allen wrench to adjust the VTA and I don't see how that is "cheating."
Enjoy!

Actually, what you propose is a neat idea.
The MG-1 is pretty sturdy though! I've heard it (on one of the better Micro-Seiki tables) and was blown away! It's on my short list of 'table upgrades. But first I have a Herbie's Mat, and a PSU from Phoenix Engineering to purchase- probably in that order!
Cheers,
