I will not speak about the product but I will speak about spending $10,000 on an item and that not include at at home installation by a qualified tech. When I purchased my first high end table, I was not really capable of dialing it in to where I would get the maximum sound out of it (when I was younger, no issue with putting a $200 grado on my P3) but when I spent more money, until I got really good at it, I wanted a pro to come to my house and do it - and they did. I would not buy a ferrari and have to then bring it to a mechanic to get it street ready - a turn table in boxes does me no good. Now that its been 20 years for me in setting up cartridges, arms and tables, I have no issues telling the dealer that I will handle the install but it should be included at that price.
