| 3 arms, 3 cartridges, one table, match them up. T Bone, I plan on mounting all 3 arms on my table. I chose them because they seemed to be representative of 3 different design parameters. Choosing them, I felt I could adapt a wide range of cartridges to showcase the different kinds of music I ma... | |
| 3 arms, 3 cartridges, one table, match them up. Hi Raul, How could our paths not cross again.
