| Has anyoe had problems using the mint LP tractor Mordante-If you can set up your cart using the VPI jig then you'll do fine with the Mint.

| SS phono stage in $2k to $3k range... I have not heard the other phono stages you list but I own the Xono. It has tons of detail, huge bass, incredible dynamics, and abounds in detail. It does not sweeten the sound up, so if you like things glossed over consider that. Also I believe t... |
