## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi,will this work on a pro-ject xperience deck to align a ortofon 2m bronze cartridge on the standard fitted evolution arm?**
A: yes - 
1. fit the cartridge to the headshell - dont tighten the screws too much
2.put the guage over the spindle
3. lower the needle onto the centre dot on the outer measure ( tip - set anti skate to zero )
4. move the cartridge forwards or back so that it sits parallel to the horizontal lines.
5.put the needle in the centre point of inner measure
6. check that the cartridge is still parallel
7. adjust forward / back until parallel
8 recheck on outer measure
9 once happy all is aligned tighten the screws up
10 rebalance arm to zero
11 set tracking weight
12 set anti skate
ready to go
note these instructions come with the guage, works well with every arm/cartridge combination i have ever had
also note that the cartridge may be a little off set in the headshell.
sounds complicated but in practice is quite easy - just take your time and be patient.

**Q: Are batteries included**
A: No batteries required, no electricity, no solar power. It looks like a small plastic mirrored school ruler but with markings to suit lining up cartridge rather than length measurement. Hope this helps.

**Q: will it work for 45 records**
A: As far as I am aware it's for lining up the cartridge/stylus which when set is in alignment for all records. Would HATE to have to change every time I played a 7, 10 or 12 inch record - That would be as annoying as predictive text!

**Q: Is this protractor good to use for a 12-inch arm, please?
Thansk!**
A: yes - it gives the zero distortion positions for two points on the tracking arc. if you align the cartridge to be parallel to the guide at those two points it doesnt matter what length arm you use. it does depend on you fitting the arm at the correct spindle to pivot distance which will be  stated in the arms mounting instructions. - nice to have a 12inch arm

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great Quality and Easy to use
  

*by A***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2021*

A really top quality tool for setting up high performance cartridges and arms.I set up my new ATVM540ML on a vintage 1970s AR XB1 turntable and its original arm which I have just totally refurbished. As I had it from new when I was a student I wanted to do it up and dig out all my records from the 70s and early 80s.All tracks perfectly at 2g and thanks to this no inner groove distortion at all.Great quality if a little pricy. But then it’s protecting about £3k of vinyl

    Great parallax correction for a truly accurate cartridge alignment
  

*by T***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2018*

Arrived promptly - a perfect protractor with clear markings greatly simplifying the process of head alignment.  The mirrored finish allows for parallax correction, which is a godsend.  Great addition to ensure perfect playback at the best quality and protect records from uneven alignment and excessive wear.
