To those of you maintaining lists of tonearm data: missing parameters for the Thorens TP-25

Hello everyone

I know there's at least one person here (his/her name escapes me right now) maintaining a database of tonearm data.

During the week I spent some time researching the parameters for the Thorens TP-25 arm, which I wanted to try, and noticed that on all of the lists, the manufacturer's intended null points (the arm has no slots, so you're stuck with whatever the mfr. designed the arm for) were missing.

But I also noticed that a couple other (newer) Thorens arms shared a few dimensions with the TP-25, and the data for those wasn't missing. So just in case (after asking here) I made a protractor with null points at 54.5 mm and 117.8 mm, and tried it today: the values match the TP-25 as well.

So I thought I'd post here in case any of you wanted to add the data to their list.

Cheers!
