The details
Optimize Tracking and Minimize Distortion with the Audio-Technics AT-CAP4 Cartridge Alignment Protractor and Stroboscope Disc: Two-Sided, Multi-Functional Tool Dials in Analog Performance
Adjust cartridge overhang, offset, and null points, and calibrate your turntable platter speed, with the two-sided Audio-Technica AT-CAP4 multi-function cartridge alignment and stroboscope disc. Using it will help you get optimal tracking, minimize distortion, and ensure even wear on your records.
The alignment side of this tool features an overhang adjustment section that allows you to set the proper distance between the stylus tip and turntable spindle, essential for ensuring proper tracking and minimizing distortion. You'll also be able to access null points for four different alignment geometries (Baerwald, Stevenson, Löfgren B, UNI-DIN) to dial in optimal tracking and play LPs minimal distortion.
Flip it over to the stroboscope side to calibrate turntable platter speeds of 33-1/3, 45, and 78RPM at 50 or 60Hz. Please note: The stroboscope requires an incandescent or strobe light (not included) to view the strobe pattern.
