Mint LP provides Stevenson Alignment
ROFL. I also own the Thales Simplicity 2 tonearm that makes all the alignment choices a complete joke as it has no tracking distortion. As I said, I prefer overall the sound of the alignment that the tonearm designer used - Stevenson in the Exclusive P3. I can hear the added bite/distortion in the first track of so of Stevenson alignment, but it’s pleasant ( not distorted at all) and much preferable overall to Baer alignment in this tonearm, despite the BS about higher distortion figures. You go on and on about the distortions of the 30K SAT tonearm, yet many buyers love the sound and reviewers go gaga over it. Perhaps you should do some listening instead of looking at distortion charts :-) btw - What alignment does the SME 3012-R have. Superb sounding tonearm and craps all over my Graham Phantom - it luvs the heavy Dyna XV-1s. |
Anyone can reread an earlier post about alighment methods, so much has been said HERE |
