[QUOTE="fdlsys, post: 821106, member: 2310"] There is big functional difference between dissimilar and hopelessly out of whack. Also, there is big difference between the expressions "common" and "not unusual". While it is NOT UNUSUAL to see some hand-made cartridges (like Koetsu) come out of the box with cantilever slightly skewed to one side, it is certainly not something that is common to all cartridges. For high volume production like Denon 103 I'd call it highly unusual. However, once the stylus itself (the diamond) is out of prescribed angles for either of two vertical planes (as it might be the case with this one), that's downright unacceptable, no mater which make the cartridge is.
