I suspect Mr. Fremer is not all that well respected here, but I found his article on using a USB microscope to adjust VTA/SRA very helpful.  I was never able to set VTA by ear.

I found a Dino-lite AD 413ZTA on ebay for $180.  Then bought a stand and modified it to clamp to the base of my Versa Dynamics.  It really did make a huge improvement in the sound quality.  Difficult to describe, but lower distortion is part of it.
