I understand but when using a ring one should be dropping the arm so the side of the cartridge clears the ring.....with CA cartridges the cantilever sticks way out in front so the profile is much different than something like a Ortofon or Benz which many of them have a much shorter stylus profile and burried under the body, you could raise it a 1/4 inch and still have issues.....IMO I would set the rake to its propper position and simply drop the arm so it clears the ring....
