 | | With the Ladegaard arm, the total mass of the arm assembly and the slider is your horizontal moving mass, and your vertical moving mass is more difficult to calculate. |
 | | It is related to the distribution of mass, m, times (the distance to the vertical pivot, d, squared) - in practice it is dominated by two things: the mass of the counter weight and the mass of the cartridge. |
