| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Don’t be afraid to buy from the UK. Check to see if they can expedite shipping if you want. Lots more available there and always cheaper than US. Did you check in with Matt Taylor of AudioGrail? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Fairground Attraction – The First Of A Million Kisses (RCA 1988)I have 2 versions. A US and UK pressing. Interestingly, the US pressing sounds better. Not the best SQ but musically top notch. A great album. Buy it. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The Roches - S/T (Warner 1979)Fun album. I like this. Odd recording, somewhat flat. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw +1 Julia Stone. What a sweet and unusual voice. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 I haven't heard those. Why can't you get one of these? | |
| Turntable Mats: Rubber, Felt or Cork. Just to clarify, I use the bare platter most of the time. Sometimes a recording is just too much. That’s when I throw on the MyMat to take the edge off without losing the essence. Being thin, there’s no need to adjust VTA.Disclaimer: Steve sent me... | |

| Turntable Mats: Rubber, Felt or Cork. I tried a Boston Mat2 on my 401 years ago and sent it back. I have comments in another thread. Basically, while it did quiet things down by removing background grunge and offered what I'd call a stable panorama, it also removed the life and soul o... | |
| LONDON Decca, Tzar DST and similar cartridges Never heard anything like that. It sounds like the armature could be loose or damaged or the tie-back cord is not doing its job. | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! If buying an unrefurbished 401, try get one with the flat strobe window. It's earlier and by all accounts better built. Not a big deal if refurbished. | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Can you reach out to Jim Campbell? He's a lot cheaper. My 1/2" solid walnut topped and maple birch ply cost $800. | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! @gunners01 If you decide on the 401, maybe run what you are getting and for how much by us first. Not sure what Woodsong do to restore one but I do know AudioGrail tears down the table to pieces and cleans, replaces rubbers amd springs and bushing... |
