| turntable for daughter Goodwins is in Waltham now. I haven't been there in a while though. I used to go to the Boston store in the late 70s also. | |
| turntable for daughter Maybe it would be good to have her go to Goodwins High End in Boston & pick out what she likes. They carry Pro-ject & Rega. Fidelis & Audio Video Therapy in Nashua, NH are also a great places to go. | |

| Mobile Fidelity StudioDeck Setup Issue I think you can just lower the cue lever. Looks like there is a hex nut there. | |
| Life After Technics SL1200 Mk5 You might want to look into the KAB Fluid Damper. I thought it made a big improvement on my 1210 MG5. Plenty of reviews. | |
| LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING I would be more interested in a cartridge I can actually buy. | |
