Turntable sound bad
Thanks for all of the response. I am confused I thought that spiked feet, where only 1000ths of an inch is touching should isolate better than the sorbothane feet. I am using a Musical Surroundings Phonomena for my phono stage, set to reccomended ... 
Rega spindle too short
I did do a google search on the achromat and like what I am learning about it. I am going to purchase the 3mm just to be safe. The way I figure it, I already have 5/8" of acrylic. I figure that all I really need is a label recess, so the 3mm shoul...

I also agree about diminishing the resale value of the platter. How thick is the Acromat, I know I could research it, but I don't see the harm in asking. Like I said the sound with album placed directly on the platter is at least 75% better. Witho... 
Rega spindle too short
I played some records today without the felt mat, and it sounded great. Before with the mat my speakers sounded really bright, to the point where I could only listed for short periods. Without the mat the lows are alot more pronounced, and the hig...

I might have to check into that extended spindle, I really don't want to scrap the IA, I got a really good deal on it, and I think it sounds great. I will however check into the funk acroplat, to see what it is all about, ie $$$. I am into great s...

I am still using the felt mat,it is rather thick, I have been looking for a new one, any ideas? I laid a record directly on the platter today, but as Frank said, since the platter does not have a recess for the lable the record does not lay flat.

Thanks Sean, for all the help. I installed the bearing with the new oil, and I am finally happy with my table. Also, thank you to everyone else.

Wow, it looks like my tedious question has resulted in a boatload of information. I really appreciate all of the responses. I will give (BIWIRING) a try and trust my ears, which seems like the only way to find out the benefits if any. Thanks for a...

I guess thank you, but next time please bypass my tedious questions and let someone with a little more patients answer. I would rather have no replies than be berated for my lack of knowledge or lack of grammar. I am sorry, but I have just recentl...

Rega planar 3 bearing and oil
Hey guys thanks for the info, I am going to try this out. Like you said, for the money it can't hurt to try it out. 
Rega planar 3 bearing and oil
I checked out the sight, I have no idea what size bearing is in my Rega Planar 2. When I purchased the table it was missing the bearing. I did not know that it was missing the bearing until I read this post and went to change the oil. If anyone kn...

Where does one go about finding the upgradable bearings? I can't seem to find them. 
No Audiophiles in Hollywood
I watched the movie the departed today and there is a couple of Mcintosh pieces in a rack, they listen to a cd with headphones, (couldn't make out what brand of headphones). 
Which amp?
First off I listen to just about everything besides, country, and rap. Right now My preamp is a Marantz A600 my speakers are Mordaunt Short 904's 2 ways, I had to get rid of the Bose 601's I have had for years and these sound way better. Right now...
