Just discovered your video as I was looking for help in setting up my RPM-3 TT and like you I followed the directions from factory on anti-skate settings which said to set the same as your tracking force, mine was 1.8., but when I did this I noticed sound was more on left speaker, so I did as you did and used the CD trick and got it so it was dead center not going left or right on CD, then when I played my first album after new adjustments WOW sound stage and stereo imaging was incredible I couldn't believe it, what a difference that little trick made, my final anti-skate ended up at 3.5 instead of the 1.8 factory recommended. Thank you so much for this awesome video.

Thank you, this helped me decide to get one.

Very nice explanation 👍

For the next video...please take Aspirina...c...

I wish you were my neighbor here in Kansas. I would pay you to set up my RPM 3 since I can't do anything with my arms and hands. My RPM 3 is totally in need of adjustment and I can do nothing about it. I guess I shouldn't even have a turntable.

Hi great video thank you! One question when setting overhang on this S 10 inch tonearm. I can't get the stylus tip on the 3-4. Should I make to arm slots longer? Or am I missing something on where the needle should fall?

The CD test doesn't work as the forces are different closer to the spindle. If you want to do the same process, find a video disc (12 inch) and place the stylus on the center of the disc, not close to the edge, neither close to the spindle. And please for next videos pause it, clean your nose and continue (sorry no offense, it's just annoying).

What is the name of that blue bubble gage? Can nott find anyhting like it.
