Clearaudio Concept - Used - Careful

Just purchased a used Clearaudio Concept. Been looking to get back into vinyl and was looking for this TT because it is promoted as easy to setup, pre-configured.

Unless it is used, than it is configured for who knows what. Before you buy this TT read the instructions. If you need to do any adjustments "contact your local dealer".

I'm sure my local dealer would love me to bring in a used Concept when he has several new for sale.

Buy used and your screwed. Mine is going up on Ebay after the holidays.

185.00 is a lot better than 95.00 per hr min of 4 hr for a Linn Sondek LP12. Take your time and set it up yourself, or at least try it first. I rebuilt 2 Linns and saved a lot of money that way. Just be careful with the cart while installing it. You'll love vinal. Good luck.

I agree with you all and take it on the chin. I have things all setup and it was worth the time. I did just as recommended, trial and error. I've swapped out several cartridges for practice and messing around. Feel pretty good about dialing this in now.

One thing to be very careful with is to not turn the anti-skate more than a couple of turns. Even that is too much and could bind the wires. Wish there was a way to know what dead center is as a reference point but there is no way to determine this that I can find.

I've gone overboard since getting this TT. I now own a new Conrad Johnson ET-3 preamp and Jolida JD-9 phono preamp with mods. Combination is working for me and I love the sound after everything is warmed up.
