One section of this encyclopedia like tome deals with rewiring a tonearm by

He also advocates considerable height adjustment on the arm pivit like in the
6 mm range. I find his ideas quite interesting and detailed and suggest any
audiophile can benefit from this 21 page article. One problem of course, in
wiring around the outside of the tonearm in a spiral loop is it looks like H..!
