This has to be the most annoying cartridge install *ever* - and it should have been pitifully simple.
This is replacing an Exact cart on a Rega Planar 6 turntable. Sweet table. Lousey so and so Rega three point attachment.
How the devil does one align this thing, or is just putting in the three bolts and eyeing thecartrige body alignment supposed to work? Using the Rega Stevenson protractor, who the heck can tell? The cart body is not straight. Eyeballing the cantilever just results in my eyes crossing, I can't tell if the dang thing is parallel or not
Worse, I can't find any information on the Rega three point attachment. It should alleviate any issues with cartridge overhang and all that jazz, but the docs don't say. Why? There *are* no docs, cussed darn cartridge.
Help?
