Hi Guys,
i have enjoyed all of the texts on this forum so I decided to chime in.
i have a Technics SL 1200 mk5 table that I got from KAB Audio about five years ago.
Kevin had sent it to somewhere in Europe for updating and I bought it within weeks after he got it back.
It has the KAB paddle mod , power supply and runs great. The turntable matt is an Achromat . The arm is the original arm rewired with Cardas wire and I am running it with an Audio Technica AT33Sa moving coil cartridge , fluid damper and Isonoe feet that I installed. The tt sits on a Symposium Audio 3 inch thick platform .
This table sounds terrific to me.
My other equipment consists of Herron Audio preamp, and Herron audio mono amps,
i have read that some feel that the only cartridges that should be used on this table and arm should be MM but I am having excellent results with the Technics moving coil.
This is the most musical system that I have ever had.
Violin
