Re: Cartridge allignment nightmares...HERE WE GO AGAIN!

The overhang gauge is way off compared to a BAERWALD protractor, which is what the HFNRR is. That's because the table wasn't designed with those null points. The overhang gauge is supposed to set a distance of 49mm from the end of the rubber washer to the stylus tip, with the cartridge parallel to the headshell. Pioneer used that measurement for virtually all of its S-arms, and the resulting offset angle determines its null points. You don't have to use that, but I certainly find it easier and faster to do it that way, and that was what Pioneer used when it designed the turntable.
