Hi, I am interested in one of these arms, being a newbie I may not be able to directly contact Phonomac as I tried to figure out how to PM him. Any advice is appreciated.

you have to make a certain number of posts before you can send a pm.
OK, thanks!
You need to make 5 posts David - 2 more to go, then you can use the Personal Message (PM) facility.
Having now tried Stevenson and Baerwald alignments, I have a preference for the latter. It gives me a little more top end detail without losing the bass definition. I am a little surprised given the arm was designed to use Stevenson but that's the way it is, for me.
ive often thought about trying other alignments,my thinking would be as long as you can line the cartridge up it doesn't matter what alignment the tonearm is designed to use. i suspect that to get Baerwald alignment you're not using a ms-9 headshell?
I can align Baerwald with the AT headshells, yes.
that does suprise me as i thought you wouldn't be able to get the increased off set angle which is what put me off trying. i'll give it a go.
Waiting for my PMAT- Mk6, AT 33PTG/II and my Phonomac upgraded Denon HA500. Once everything arrives the only thing I'll have to do is to drop the tonearm in the armboard, adjust the height and connect the cables. Angus will do all the fine tuning for me, what better than that? Good bye 3009. By the way, the At-1010 was designed and manufactured for Audio Technica by Audiocraft/Ultracraft, Jelco did not have anythng to do with it.
Cheers,
