Will fine tune adjustments with protractor help with "brightness?"
@avanti1960 I just received the Mint Protractor and haven’t yet used it to align my Hana SL. Yip was pretty adamant in his email response to me that his protractor used Stevenson and that was the only option. I didn’t question him and insist on Lo...

New Funk Firm Achromat Warped
It was shipped in a rather weak bendable cardboard mailer. For $155 It should have been shipped in regular LP packaging.

Wow moments while listening to vinyl records
I never paid much attention to Paul Simon's "Graceland" when it came out in 1986. Last year I got the 25th anniversary reissue and the sound is outstanding. It is definitely "wow" worthy.
