Azimuth, vertical alignment
Azimuth adjustment or vertical alignment of the cartridge is very important for optimal channel
separation.
The checking is easily done by lowering the cartridge onto a thin mirror placed on the record
surface and examining whether the reflection lines up square with the cartridge, when viewed
from the front.
During this test tonearm must still be parallel to the record surface. If not obtainable because of
mirror thickness, remove record and work directly on the mat.
If alignment is still incorrect and not adjustable because of fixed headshell, the only solution is to
resort to packing on one side of the head-shell.
Warning
This phono cartridge is only for mounting on tonearms and must not be used for other purposes.
