Late to the Tannoy party
I’m back with a traditional deck after years with an SL10. I always used a shure sfg gauge to measure vtf before, but now I have a little Clearaudio balance.
The shure had a groove for placement on the spindle, so I always measured at the same point. The Clearaudio is much shorter, with no spindle locator, so can sit anywhere on the platter.
When I do this I get different measurements at what would be the first track, middle track and last track. Should this be the case? Is there a recommended place on the platter to measure vtf? Maybe that’s why the shure has the notch I suppose.
