Prior to purchasing this protractor, I adjusted the tonearm height of my turntable like everyone else by observing it from the side and using my best judgment as to where true horizontal is. The acrylic protractor eliminated the uncertainty at this stage as it is now clear where the plane is using the block as a reference. I've used an azimuth sensor that was downloaded and printed out and I've always been skeptical that the spindle bore is actually dead. . Another problem was preventing paper from curling when not in use. But now that has all been solved with the hard plastic version that came as part of this kit. Setting up the player is a daunting task for many, but with good YouTube videos and easy-to-buy tools on Revain, the job becomes a lot easier. These tools come in handy when you're looking to replace cartridges for testing or listening, and the only extra you'll need is a little digital dial for measuring and setting downforce - they're also available from Revain.
