Nandric - Thanks Yes and No... lolEvery decision I’ve made in my life is my own so no dobt there. I’d like to think I’ve made more good ones than bad ones but heinsight can be such an unfair critic but also a good tool for growth when not too hars...

Might need some advice / help / tips on mounting my cart? Is there simple rule of thumb or technique  I can use or do I need spend hours reading how to stumble though the Rega Arc Baerwald protector found on Vinyl Engine and HiFi News’ Analogue Te...
