VPI SCOUTMASTER UPGRADE TO ?

I must thank every one for the wealth of knowledge and willingness to share and educate newbies like myself. Just got back into vinyl and look forward everyday to reading the posts in this forum. Life has not been the same I must say. Vinyl spinni... 
Is there a length limit for Turntable cables?
I agree with Nsgarch on the Target wall shelf solution. However a Gingko Cloud isolation platform or similar platform will eliminate all you vibration problems IMO. Visit their website for more information. In my setup, my Scoutmaster is sitting o...
