Yep, besides properly setting up the TT and aligning cartridges (thanks to the guys in the TT sub-forum), the biggest improvement came from aligning the speakers. Then I could ease back and enjoy the music and focus on other hobbies . KB

Thanks guys, when the system is tuned, music is just plain lovely. Still have 4 TT. Daily users are my YP701 , and TT500 . Use my Yammy P200 with XV15 for needle drops. The Pioneer PL 512 + M97XE sits in the livingroom, just looking pretty. KB

It's been over a year (1.5+) since posting on AK. Since leaving the forum, I have not touched any of my gear, other than listening to my vinyl. Since cleaning all my vinyl with the KAB EV-1 record cleaner, every record to date, is still spotless and sounding as perfect as a record can. To the...

How are you and the family doing in PR. ? Hope your home and equipment are ok . Ken B.

That's way Kool. I tried it today, and it finally works, as described. Again, Thanks.

Well, the manual sure is confusing. I couldn't figure that for the life of pete. I'll choke that up to old age.

I'll sure second that.... Also, got the DVD "Get Better Sound" by Jim Smith $20.

Yep, I'll second that......... Thanks to you, I have that combo and it sits in rotation, behind my Grado ZF3/8MZ and Shure M91/SAS.

Same here, never had any issues cleaning records. I had 400 to clean, when I first got the unit, cleaning 15-20 per session. I did order an extra set of felt lips and changed them after 100 records. Now I clean the records , as I purchase. After the initial cleaning, if I detect any dirty...

First, Grado ZF3+8MZ, followed by my Shure M91+SAS.

Well, I'll check those out and order one. Say, I have a ART DJ Pre + Plus, that connects via USB and has RCA outs. Might that qualify as a DAC. Nothing mentioned in the specs.

Trying to keep under a $100, as that what the RPi and accessories would have cost me . Thanks.
