Fozgometer?

My position is that setting az by some measurement technique is a good way to get to the ballpark. It is still required to fine tune by ear to get the best sound, IMO. Saying that, I realize that most people will just stay with what the meter tells them and be happy.

I had a very similar experience as Gjrad. My ears, friends ears something not right. I own the Fozgometer too and used it to dial in azimuth. What was not right now is!!! The Fozgometer works well and I've now adjusted azimuth on three other cartridges/headshell combinations. In each case the improvement was noticeable.

Have any of you tried another independent method to compare the results obtained with the Fozgometer? For example, measuring crosstalk in each channel using a voltmeter with the same 1kHz test tones used for the azimuth calibration using the Fozgometer. Presumably the crosstalk difference (from measured voltages) is close to a minimum when the Fozgometer readings are the same (??)

Hichory, I think you are right, but the real issue is convenience.

I used a Fluke DDM today to check Azimuth on my rig. I used a 1k left and right signal through my EAR 834p to the DDM. I had the DDM set to millivolts. I had the adjustment close by using the human ear method. I was off by a slight amount and set Azimuth to equal amounts of millivolts on the quiet channel. I do believe i m getting a wider stage and better sound now. From what i ve read it may have been easier to do this adjustment with a Fozgometer but it can be done with a DDM also.
