On the advice of some local Visigoths, I replaced the feet and mat on my Technics 1200 MKII. I also added a fluid damper and upgraded the headshell. I thought (and still think!) it sounded pretty good.I still have it but upgraded to a Technics 1200G which is much better, as it should be given the price. The 1200GR is really good too and I thought a bit about buying that and saving some money.I am very happy with my table. It is an improvement but the 1200MKII with tweaks was nice too.
