Russ69 yes Upscale is loaded with staff who knows analog.. indeed free setup. Thanks
Rushfan71, thanks, actually Iam still waiting for my Superprime , I ordered white , VPI is slow making them, I am dealing with Ken Davis , very calm and nice guy.I heard the Lyra at friend house it’s superb.I also have ML Hana on my SME 10 on my main system. I like it a lot too.When my table will show up  at UPscale , I will let Ken the cart choice, I like the Hana S, and Songbird Sumiko for the super prime, will see.
Rushfan71 Iam impress with the bronze mm, maybe the quintet bronze mc is better? Can you give me a bit performance description on the bronze you have ? I assume it’s the quintet bronze?
Rushfan71 very very true, from bronze to black , I started from red to blue. Iam thinking eithe Sumiko Songbird or Hana S for SSP tt.
Rushfan71 finally I received my tt and I choose Hana to match with Sutherland 2020 phono preamp , so far this is a very good match, the Hana SL is very fast and elegantly musical. Very very quiet .Will post more as this tt and Hana SL are burnin in..
Rushfan71 are you using the anti skate? Upscale said is not needed on unipivot tonearm?
Rushfan71 Iam not sure if they set the tt and cart to play with the mat on.I email Sean at Upscale, those guys  Ken , Sean , Kath ,all good on what they do
