Probably he read the post linked bellow on Lencoheaven and decided that life is too short to adjust VTA by listening before playing any LP ...

I have played with VTA with the Graham Phantom, that gives us precise, fast and repeatable VTA adjustments and know the difference they can produce.
But after a few experiences I settled on the 92º.
Does anyone check and record the SRA of the stylus in the cantilever every time he gets a cartridge replacement?
Edit - I was keeping this post in the "reflexion period", decided to shorten it after I saw Mike previous one.
