    Ok, but if I’m buying a used one that doesn’t have the device. Any suggestions? Paper? String?

    I have one other question. What’s the easiest way to set your mounting distance from the center spindle? Is it just a ruler? Or is there something you can download online?

    Isn’t compliance typically measured at 10HZ? Do they do it differently in Japan?

    Wow thanks for all the explanations. I really appreciate it. I think I might have messed up. I found a good deal on an sme 3009 series 2. It had been rewired. But what I didn’t realize was that it’s the improved version. So now I think I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. Was also looking...

    Ok wow. I did not realize this. So essentially I need a heavier arm. How do we feel about the Ortofon RMG 309? I think the V is a little out of my price range. I think I over paid a little for the garrard. Also can you recommend some modern arms. If I were to get an SME 3012, what kind of...
