Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Yes I have...

And it works great. I have two tonearms with VTA on the fly. One is a RB-300 mounted on a Riggle VTAF and the other is the new VPI 3D.

The Riggle VTAF works but you have to take care when you adjust it during playback. The VPI Prime is a better implementation and seems to be impervious to any bad side effects when you adjust VTA. Nonetheless you always take care.

Most of the time I adjust the VTA just prior to spinning the LP. The advantage is I am familiar with my library and know which LPs sound best at which settings. I am somewhat anal about my LPs and I keep a maintenance log with each LP and some of them have notations for VTA settings.

For the ones that do not have VTA info, I adjust the VTA based on the weight of the vinyl.

Now that I have a new setup I have to update those VTA notations with the settings on the VPI 3D arm.
