It looks easily removable but I have not tried it. I imagine it is possible that it could have an effect on the sound--everything else seems to. |

Perhaps, I never tried to remove it. With those tonearms it imposable to figure out what would affect what….

In the XP-282 SC insert (as on the any other inserts) there are bolts that attach the pipe to the headshell. You might spin the headshell relative to the pipe by unscrewing those bolts. On the SC inset there are 4 microscopic bolts and on the AU and SM arms there are two. Be very careful with them as the most likely were sitting there for 20-30 years and they have very fragile threads and heard. If you do not have an appropriate screwdriver or do not apply enough pressure then it is very ease to damage those bolts. Generally the azimuth adjustment is a bogus thing to do. A proper cartridge should have perpendicular needed and the properly made arm should set the cartridge perfectly parallel without needs to do any azimuth change. I have 5 micro pipe and all of them hold the azimuth with none-damaged cartridge perfectly aligned. You see, I sincerely feel that considering the size of the azimuth bolt and some other factors, it is better do not touch the azimuth at all as if you do then you never fix it firm enough within our “fields conditions”. I personally would set the azimuth and then glue the headshell to the pipe… but it is me…

At the arm on the picture there is no weight as it runs the Denon-103D then do not need any extra mass with this arm.
