Spindle diameter - Marantz TT15


I'd like to get a Mint tractor for my turntable and Yip has asked for the spindle's diameter. Since this TT is actually made by Clearaudio, would anyone know if the spindle is the same as that found on the Emotion?

Thanks :)

I think it is better to get a digital caliper and measure the spindle. Even if the manufacturer specifies the spindle diameter, this measurement is often times rounded up. Digital calipers go from about $30 and up.

For the Mint tractor, it is better to have the exact spindle diameter to 1/10 or 1/100 of a millimeter. This is one of the main reasons why the Mint tractor is so accurate.

Best,
