Which NYC Dealers REALLY know how to setup a TT?


I live in Manhattan. I want to purchase a new turntable, arm and cartridge.
I'm willing to spend up to $5,000, maybe $6,000 tops for everything.
From long nights of reading MANY post online here and elsewhere I feel that even more important than a particular brand etc., the dealer must really know how to setup a turntable properly. I'am all thumbs when it comes to this stuff and have accidentally trashed my share of cartridges over the years!
Therefore it is very important to me that a dealer really knows how to setup a turntable, arm and cartridge properly so I can get the most out of what I pay for.
Can people who have actual experience with NYC dealers please steer me in the right direction? Thank you.

Hello Quaxtro,

I second the recommendation on Nick at the Audio Connection. He really knows turntable setup. Owner John Rutan is also one of the best guys to do business with in the industry. I believe that they are a VPI dealer as well.

Take a ride over the bridge to Verona, NJ. Service after the sale is outstanding.
