[QUOTE="LIVESOUND, post: 1098516, member: 778"] I understand. I thought you were referring to changing the 24.2 in the picture to 20 degrees, which is dumb on my part. The VTA/SRA setting will depend on the angle at which the stylus is set into the cantilever. As you say, the standard is for the stylus to be close to vertical when the SRA is at 20 degrees. The Ortofon example shows the stylus angled at about 116.5 degrees with the cantilever at 24. I assume that the angle of the stylus is more important than the angle of the cantilever, which means that if my stylus has been mounted in accordance with the standard geometry, I would have to raise my arm pillar hugely to achieve an SRA of 116 degrees. I doubt that it would even be possible. Is a microline stylus supposed to be set at that kind of angle (116 degrees) or is the generally used angle of 92 degrees acceptable? [/QUOTE]
