Effective length : distance from stylus tip to pivot point (mm)
O/H (overhang): distance from stylus tip to spindle centre (mm)
O/S (offset): offset angle (degrees)
Pivot to spindle : distance from pivot point to spindle centre (mm) this is normally the same as mounting distance
Cartridge weight : cartridge weight range (g)
Arm mass : arm effective mass (g)
VTA : verticle tracking angle adjustment (yes/no)
MP (mounting): mounting pattern for arm base (mm dia or type)
HS (headshell) fix - fixed headshell
rem - removeable headshell
sme - sme type removeable headshell
arm - removeable arm
Null points : calculated from effective length / overhang / offset (mm)

Specifications taken from manufacturers data where available. Other sources include magazine reviews and direct measurement. Null points have been calculated from the stated dimensions and should not be used for alignment. Dimensions are believed correct at time of publication but no liability is accepted for inaccuracies herein. All data is made available for comparison purposes only.
