In Reply to: RE: Wally Tractor Universal... is it worth it? posted by Pcosta on September 27, 2016 at 17:24:44
If you like the Wally Tractor I would check out Ken Willis's Accutrak. He can make it to have a couple of different alignments for the same tonearm, one alignment for three different tonearm or a full disc one that has all the usual P-S distance arcs. He is fast and honest. I've bought 4 and have been happy with them all. You can usually have one within the week rather than who-knows-when with Wally.
Highly recommended!

That looks pretty sweet, and the price is extremely reasonable. Thanks for posting the link!
I ordered one for my MMF-5 and emailed him for one for the Sony PS-x5.
Oh no... here we go. :)
You ordered which one? The Wally thingie or the Ken Willis Accutrak. If the later, I am sure you'll be happy. Ken is a great, stand-up guy. I mat him at Axpona one year and really enjoyed my chat with him and JE.
Accutrack. I want to compare the free version to the Accutrack which is (compared to the Wally) much cheaper at 60 bucks. Yes the Wally is universal, but I only have two turntables. At 60 each, I'm still way ahead of the game.
What I'm going to try is setting up with the free one first, and listening then seeing how well or not it lines up with Accutrack. Then if it's off, go by Accutrack and listen again.
I think it will be more a reflection of my skills than as a review of the actual tools, because Ellison is very knowledgable, and probably able to use the free tool to easily get good results. But I am NOT knowledgable, skilled or experienced in cartridge setup and I think I may benefit from Accutrack picking up the slack.
We will soon find out.
Don't forget Ken can put more than one TT/Tonearm combo on one protractor at least he used to. I have one with two SME-V arcs as well as one for my Terminator T-3 tonearm a linear tracker.
I did not know that! I am hoping he can do that. That would really make the thing a bargain.
