Slaw...I thought I'd try the CD first since I got it used for a really good price. If I like it as much as I think I will, I will definately get the LP. Thanks! 
Alternative for VPI springs?
Rpfef...I realize what they are designed for. Here is what is stated in the ad:Big Tall Tenderfoot: Same as above except molded extra tall to lift components free of tall factory feet. Also great for turntables having severe footfall or other macr...
