Hey buddy, I went through that several years ago during a depression period. I would have been afraid to post it then based on what others might think. I'm afraid most of my choices at the time would have been much darker. Tunes like Vic Chesnutt ...

BTW, if you are using a uni-pivot arm, have you tried the dual pivot upgrade? If not, I'd recommend getting that first.

@gareents,I have the same tt (mine is an SE), and just got my SS Sussurro MkII (@40% off) broken in and it sounds fantastic! No hum at all. The more than fair re-tipping charge on the SS is a major consideration.

Colter Wall "Songs of the Plains" Looking at Colter’s picture while listening, I can’t help but wonder where that voice comes from. SQ = Amazing!
