Dear F456gt: Is there any chance to put on a spacer between the tonearm and the TT?
Rgards and enjoy the music.

Thorens TD147: raising tonearm
Hello,
Even though I have been a member of Audiogon for a long time I have never posted a message.
I have a mint Thorens TD147 Jubilee which has been in the box for several years and decided to make it part of another system on another floor at home. I installed a very low hours Ortofon MC30 MKII Super which was mounted on another arm.
I have followed Thorens instruction manual but I cannot raise the tonearm high enough to clear the bottom of the cartridge, the Ortofon runs very low, at about 2 or 3 mms from the surface of a record, sometimes it touches it.
This second system is comprised of a Klyne 6LX3.5X, Electrocompaniet AW-100 Anniversary power amp, Meridian 507 CD player and Aerial 10T speakers.
Am I using the wrong cartridge for the TD147 or am I overlooking something here?
Thank you very much in advance.
Orazio
