Fozgometer?


Just yesterday read in Stereophile about this new tool for setting azimuth electrically. Sounds interesting, but also IMO is slightly borderline for myself to decide whether the cost ($250) would justify buying such a tool?

Downside with myself, is my Arm is not adjustable in azimuth, unless I maybe throw a Pipe Wrench on the Armtube?

Still, would be interesting to get other's opinions, and hopefully soon, some user's accounts of such a tool? Mark

I think phase angle has to be considered as well, no? Cartridges are rarely equal in output so I think you need to know the output difference to really have an effective method to measure azimuth by crosstalk level. The method of equaling crosstalk between L and R doesn't make sense if the inherent level difference between L and R is not considered.
Hi Guys

I'm about to order one of these.

I have the cardas Frequency and Burn in Record & Hi Fi Test New LP.

Do I need the Analogue Productions Ultimate Analog Test LP ?

Thanks for the inputs.
I used a couple of test records I had laying around and they didn't work. I bought the Analogue Productions record and it worked fine.
"I used the Cardas lp it has 1K L and R tones i believe tracks 9 10 and 11"

Hey,

You have the older one? The 2010 update only appears to have one 1khz track and I suppose it is Mono.

Thanks,
Robert
