turntable skipping with footsteps
Do wall-mounted shelves work that well in those wooden houses in the US? I'd imagine the vibrations would get into it either way.

@cleeds Dang, I was hoping there was a formula or someone else knew! 
Duelund Silver vs Audio Note Silver capacitor

What's a real good arm for a Decca Cartridge?
Poppycock! My Decca SG tracks perfectly in my 12" Jelco 850L at 1.65g. I have a Decca Grey Garrott Export in a 12" 750L and it too tracks perfectly at 1.7g.I do use heavy mounting bolts (brass) on the headshell.  
Whats on your turntable tonight?

Good Inexpensive Amp for Back Yard Speakers
Why not use powered wireless speakers you can control from your phone? 
I Recapped my Conrad Johnson PFR. Wow! Some of the best $$$ I've spent
@bdp24 No doubt some truth in what you say. However, manufacturers must bear some responsibility for being cheap and using inexpensive components.  
Does SS phono preamp negate tube amp sound?
Croft is MM only. You'd need a SUT like a cinemag (Bob's Devices) before the phono stage. Or look at other tube phono with SUT built in. Many non-SUT MC phono stages use JFET solid state MC stages.
