Ask Jim cause heck if I know lol! Think there's an inner and outer null point, don't know if it's ever perfect maybe just a balance. I do know I've heard "inner groove distortion" when it's not close!

I should dig mine out sometime. It has been decades since I lit it up.
SL-1200 is the one I posted a link to above.
Oh mine's prolly off and there's nothing to verify the anti-skate. I did see a device on the Wally Tractor video but don't think I'm diving that deep, at least not yet lol!
I saw this when picking up my old tubes last Saturday, was a little "sticker shocked".
Ouch !!!
Correct. The cutting lathe is always 90 degrees to the center of the disc, and the only way to duplicate that is by using a linear tracking arm. Cheap ones suck, and expensive ones are finicky (I've messed around with air-bearing arms), and since every static-mounted tonearm is a compromise, different alignment strategies have been developed over the years, each with it's own features and shortcomings/faults.
If you ever plan on driving into the Chicago (Barrington) area, shoot me a PM before you leave. I have a good friend there who is an audio dealer, and he usually has multiple $10k+ turntables set-up.
Yikes. The "G" must be a deluxe model. The one I posted above was "only" $1300
Shee-it! I still have two SL-1200's, don't remember the version (the last letter), but I'll take them to my grave probably, as both were used as test mules for Jim Howard's (RIP) bearing upgrades.
My reply will be interesting.
What the heck, if it works!My reply will be interesting.
Works well, Always did them that way.
Time to get, have to go to Redmond to pick up network equipment, the fun time will be return trip where I drop off cam, pistons, etc. to builder. Have a Great Day All!
That's fun.... Not
Driving. Little slick out there on the back roads. Greeeezy

Looks like I’ll have to just settle for my 64 Wurlitzer Jukebox
Not good at all, anyone sleeping up there could get sick or die in there sleep from carbon monoxide poisoning, seems to me your heat supply down stairs should be vented
A few months before I got married I bought my Meranze system, but opted for a better direct drive Gerard turn table, word to the young, buy that stereo system before you get married.
Yeah... I don't use it because of that. It's just in a weird spot with the split level house and partial basement
Wonder if it needs to be cleaned somehow
