    kenwood kd-550 tonearm replacement options

    I have a damaged tonearm with missing antiskate parts. The question is should I just replace the whole assembly or look for a tech? I am tech savvy but in a different field and the search for parts can be difficult. Otherwise it's in great shape. BK Pro 10, Crown DC-300A Series II, Emilar...

    Kenwood KD-550 available here, what should I look for?

    Hi Everyone, Someone here has a KD-550 on craigslist for $150. She has not used it in a while, it worked last time she used it. Not much to go on, just says "works great" in the description. I just spoke to her, she said she would get back to me in about 15 minutes to make arrangements to see...
