Stylus pressure setting
It's called VTF. 1g is recommended per web search. Turntable doesn't matter, arm doesn't either.  
Room Treaments - Where To Begin...
OP: I have read countless comments that the best thing you can do to improve the listening experience is to acoustically treat the room. But where does one gain the expertise to do so? There are so many products/options out there. I have no clue ...

If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically...
The greed CD pens actually work, by the way. Derisive comments serve only to burnish reputation among those who find it easier to dismiss out of hand than do the work of finding out for themselves. Credit and props to those who do put a little mo...

Don't judge a book by its cover. The cover says, "Acoustics hard. Use headphones."  
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components

HELP - Subwoofer placement
Study a lot more about DBA. All the "one sub" people are about 20 years behind the times. Instead of learning the physics and psychoacoustics that makes a DBA work so well they persist in trying to fight physics with DSP and tube traps. The princi... 
An excellent paper on routing cables to avoid interaction and noise injection.
Not really. I scanned enough to realize nothing new. I also realize there's people do nothing but post glib uninformed comments. Mine is glib, but informed. I know there is more to it. But if you want to help people without taking up a whole after...
