I'm using the funky Grace alignment




The old Grace G-1040 I mounted on my TNT shares its specs with other Grace arms: 237mm effective length, 15mm overhang, 21deg offset and 222 mounting distance.
I used an arc protractor to align to the original Grace null points - 66.8 and 103mm(!).

This results in higher distortion at the start of the record but low distortion from the first null inwards.
Sounds very good with the Ortofon 2M black - actually I'm loving the sound of this combo.
I've got no inclination to try to re-align to Lofgren (I'm sure the thought of this alignment would drive John Elison nuts).
