In Reply to: VTA...Does it make much difference? posted by John Elison on October 13, 2007 at 17:58:57:
where they demonstrated the difference correct VTA made. THey were using a VPI TNT with Lyra Titan cartridge, CJ electronics and $1800 speakers. Not a megabuck system.
The difference was clearly audible, the best way they could describe the method was that there is a perceived increase in volume when you hit the sweet spot. They mark the adj know and adjust for every record. 200g, 180g, 150g, etc.
I had my wife adjust my Scout while I sat in the sweet spot, sure enough, I could hear it. Too low and the pace drags, too high and the music gets thin and brittle. There does seem to be a pretty wide range where I could not tell much difference.
The biggest differences were using the proper EQ on older records, using a protractor instead of the VPI fixture, and using a real mono cartridge on mono records. All of those made huge differences.
