TriPlanar tonearm outward skating issue

Dear @cleeds : J.Carr Lyra designer just two days ago posted about his products ( different issue. ), in the VPI thread after big pressure by customers VPI posted, PL of Sounsmith posted, Atmasphere posted in specific of his product design ( different issues each one of the manufacturers. ), Anvil TT designer posted a few days ago and audio distributors that care of their customers comes/came here and post. 
You can see very clear that it's not " absurd " as you think.

But different " problems with the Triplanar tonearm is a historic " behavior ". In 2005 in a thread customers disclosed 9-10 " pproblems that they solved by it self, by coincidence one of those troubles was the AS issue:

""  Changing the cueing height affects the point where anti-skate kicks in. (Yes, it's weird.) Once cueing height is satisfactory, adjust the short pin that sticks out of the front of the cueing frame. That pin controls where the anti-skate dogleg first engages the knot on the string.  """


After several manufacturer revisions/up-dates ( many over many years. ) today still looks as still  an unfinished tonearm design.

that post tell us that was you not Triplanar whom fixed the problem because the advise Triplanar gave you not works.

Dear @rauliruegas , I know you mean well, but you have misread my post. I did not say that I asked Tri for advice. I only asked for a lighter counterweight. You have assumed that I asked for advice, and then received incorrect advice. I only point this out because I do not want Triplanar to be misrepresented in this instance.

In fact, I should have asked Tri for advice. He would have told me the same thing Ralph said here:

Its also easy to fix- just extract some of the wires from the cable where the clamp is mounted at the base of the arm so as to give the wires a bit more slack.

I confess, I didn’t try this until last night. I’ll be damned, the cable is not fixed to its jacket at the clamp, like I assumed, but slides easily out to create the slack Ralph mentions. (Assumptions can be deadly!) Problem fixed, and my improvised weight is no longer needed. So, good has come of this messy thread after all. Thanks! I hope it also solves the OP’s problem.

Hey Raul, have you examined any of these arms that you claim have a defect? Have you ever actually even seen a Triplanar arm in person? Have you ever heard a Triplanar arm?

The OP says his problem's resolved, and yet you call the Triplanar an "unfinished" design?

Sorry, but your determination is based on information that doesn't even rise to the level of hearsay, Raul. It's just speculation, and ill-considered speculation at that.

Dear @cleeds The answer is yes to all your questions in your first sentences. 
My first experience with the Triplanar in a  top quality performance  system was in Dougdeacon ( the OP in the other triplanar thread. ) place in USA and after that around 7-8 times.

Btw, the OP on this thread does not posted yet he solved the trouble.

Now, in this thread 3 of 3 audiophiles that own the tonearm shared the same trouble.
I don't care what you think but if 3 of 3 has the same problem something is " wrong " with that tonearm that has to be fix it by the manufacturer for can't repeated again with his customers.

You are " looking " how to hit me ( as always. ) with out success ( as always.

Sorry, but I don’t believe that the posters here shipped their pickup arms to you for evaluation. You’re just speculating.

I don’t care what you think but if 3 of 3 has the same problem something is " wrong " with that tonearm ...

Sorry, but that’s the logical fallacy often called the "Texas Sharpshooters fallacy." It’s related to the "multiple comparisons" problem that can happen when statistics are misinterpreted. You are considering only a small subset of data. Worse, you've appointed yourself as judge, jury and executioner regarding the status of these three pickup arms - about which you you know nothing first-hand, but instead rely on information that doesn't even rise to the level of hearsay.
