    Hum Question

    I believe the headshell is metal. I will check when I get home and get a pic or two to post. ...and to clarify a mistake I typed above, the stylus in D71EE and the cart (i believe) is L720EE. I came across another thread on the vinyl engine forum where the poster stated he could only get the...

    Ramping Up My Newly Acquired TP-1020 As A Noob

    update: I found the oil hole... It was hidden by sprocket as predicted... the tough part was getting a few drops in there w/o it spilling... succeeded with use of a toothpick. Is there some sort of mini eye-dropper that is good for this?? Got everything up and running with Art DJ Pre2 preamp...
