guys thanks for the responses- Newbee question- I just bought a Reed 3P 12 inch arm with a Lyra Etna cart. that was prof. set up on the same turntable (firebird) that I have- I am picking it up tomorrow intact so I assume (or not) that if I just mount it on my table that it should be good to go since it was set up on the exact same table- Is this a fair assumption- again thks for the help!!
