VTA and Azimuth Setup Gauge for Turntable Cartridge 66 x 48 x 7.5 mm Transparent Acrylic Block with Grid Tonearm and Stylus Adjustment
You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
A properly set cartridge is the foundation of clear sound from vinyl records and gentle handling of the grooves. This gauge is used to check two important parameters of the turntable, namely cartridge azimuth and VTA, or vertical tracking angle, which relates to the height and horizontal position of the tonearm. It is made from highly transparent acrylic, allowing you to see the cartridge, stylus, and tonearm clearly. On both sides, there is a dense grid printed with numbered lines, which makes it easy to compare the position of the individual parts. The gauge is suitable for home listeners, vinyl collectors, and turntable servicing.
The block measures 66 x 48 x 7.5 mm and, due to its thickness, stands on the turntable platter or on the record itself without the need to hold it. In the middle of the bottom part, there is a finer grid with vertical lines that facilitates checking the perpendicularity of the stylus. The horizontal lines across the entire width serve to assess whether the tonearm is parallel to the record. The gauge is lightweight, compact, and fits into any turntable accessory bag.

When checking the azimuth, move the cartridge over the centre of the record, lower the tonearm, and let the stylus touch the record. Place the gauge in front of the cartridge and observe whether the cartridge is aligned with the vertical line in the middle of the grid and whether its outline corresponds to the grid lines. For cartridges with irregular shapes, estimate whether the edges are symmetrically distributed. To check the VTA, position the gauge beside the tonearm and verify whether the tonearm is parallel to the horizontal lines. If it is not, adjust the height of the tonearm. Throughout the measurement, the turntable platter must remain stationary and not rotate. Remove the protective film from the gauge before first use. Clean the surface with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth to keep it clear and the grid easily readable.
The acrylic gauge is a simple and reliable tool for anyone who wants to have their turntable set up meticulously and without guesswork. It will assist you in checking the perpendicularity of the stylus as well as assessing the height of the tonearm, making it useful when installing a new cartridge, replacing a stylus, or during regular equipment checks. The transparent design allows for easy monitoring of all essential parts simultaneously. Thanks to the stable block with a thickness of 7.5 mm, the gauge stands firmly, and measurements can be taken quickly. It is a practical addition to any turntable care tool kit.
