    Pioneer PL-400 PL-300 PL-255 PL-250 PL-200 PL-100 counterweight stub repair.

    I recently found a cheap Pioneer PL400 so I could scavenge the dust cover for an old Pioneer PL420 that I already own. But after reading some nice reviews here on AK I decided to try and rejuvenate this deck so that I could compare the sound. Luckily the turntable was completely functional...

    Please Help me optimize my New Turntables Counterweight and antiskate

    So, here are some pictures of my current counter weight and anti-skate settings. I am getting a little "muffle" on some vocals and some Sss Sibilance sometimes (maybe 20% of the time).
