What's wrong with my VPI motor?
Thanks all...I will check it out tonight! 
Grado "wobble"...?
I am no expert but I have owned quite a few Grado's from the Signature 3 to the Sonata!! A great series of cartridges! However, I have had, in all my Grado's two that had the wobble. I cannot explain it but I could not remedy it. It JUST appeared....

Raquel...I have a question. When you said "which took +/- four revolutions of the VTA tower" did you mean 360 degree turns? Wow lots of turns. I never went that far with mine ( I also have the 10.5). Maybe I haven't locked in yet? ALSO...where is ...
