Headshells .

[early]

Can anyone point me in the direction of a light(ish) headshell say sub 10g that has adjustable azimuth .

A fair few of the better Audio Technica ones do, e.g. here’s an 11g one (can’t find lighter of this type) eBay link.

Hi Tony , I've already got one of those ( and the 13 and 15 g versions ) and they are great headshells . Just looking for something lighter .

Some of the Technics headshells (e.g. RFA3670) have Azimuth adjustment, they are typically around 8g. The AT LH ones are heavier 13/15/18g I believe. The AT MG10 is fixed but my fave reasonably priced one.

You can just see the little AZ screw in two of the three below.

Got one of them too ( SL1200G owner ) and in my opinion it's the most cack handed implimentation of azimuth adjustment I've come accross .

Fancy one of these but the five £hundred is a bit steep - Arche SRA

With the arché© the owner can adjust all geo- metrical cartridge parameters at the spot:
** SRA/VTA between 90 and 94°.
** Overhang by 12 mm in total.
** Azimuth can be adjusted within +/- 2.5°.
** Offset angle can be adjusted in the mounting
Aside from it’s superior sonic abilities - resulting from it’s very special mix of expensive treated
