| Garrard 401 service & tweaking my new project. No worries islandman. I did not take it that way ~ I just know for me, that I like things to be functional ~I just got a chance to open and look at the 401. It is super clean (except for dust) ~ even the break pad is still close to off white. Only... | |
| Which feet for VPI Scout Bearpaws are awesome! However, I have found they only work magic with a proper draining base ~ maple block, slate, (all though I have not tried, edensounds own terra stone looks cool). I use edensound or Mapleshade feet under all of my tt's for la... | |

| Garrard 401 service & tweaking my new project. Great, thanks mangos & islandman! That's more than helpful! For some reason ~ in my research I learned that when switching from 220v to 110v the idler wheel also had to be changed. Is that not true? | |

| Review: Denon 301 MK II Cartridge Alan - to use a lomc like the 301 with a mm stage you will need an external set up transformer or use an external phono stage. Other wise you gotta stick with mm, mi, or high output moving coil carts. If the counterpoint has a MC phono stage then ... | |
| HE Eliptical No way man! Go with finer stylus - sounds like a great combo! Tp 16 will allow improvements to be heard. | |
| SUP and existing phonostage or new phonostage... The concept will most likely not be a major upgrade from the p2. I most def recommend used tt. But be carful - you will want one that has no fuss after it's set up properly since you'll be baking. Maybe a dealer demo? In your price range are the v... | |
