I play anything from standard thickness, 180 or 200 gram in any one sitting. I can hear the difference if I use 200 gram setting on 180 and vice versa. Having to use a lock screw is just too impractical, thus you need to really pick one that is an average and a compromise somewhat. Not ideal.
Hi, I can hear it to...but what I am saying is the Shroeder LT benefits outweigh the VTA advantages on a "normal" pivoted arm. Especially on inner and outer groove distortion. A easily VTA adjustable LT can likely help...but I feel I am better off giving up VTA for the better sonics of the LT arm..
