Hello Guys, I know this one has been beat to death but I am still going back and forth on anti skate. I have an Avenger with 12" FatBoy UniPivot. I used the Wally Skater and dialed in correct antiskate using system. Without antiskate device I have what I would consider a normal amount of antiskate per VPI set up videos. I want to poll the troops with similiar setup to see who is using (and not using) anti skate:0)
Best,
Mike in Austin
I use the vpi mechanical anti-skate device. I also use the Wally Skater tool, with great attention given to making sure that the lemo tonearm wire provides little to no bias as possible.
Without an opposing skating force, the cartridge stylus will be subject to asymmetric wear. Simple physics.
