1. Thorens td115, dynavector cart; the output is low.

Which Cartridge? Could it be a "Low output Moving Coil" In which case you would need a stage.

2. Thorens td320, Shure cart; the outer part plater scrapes the top of motor pulley
Does this scrape the entire circumference? Or just one small location of the platter?

3. Technics sp15, have yet to try it out.
 
I think it's a Karat. What's a "stage"? Please forgive my ignorance.

Scrapes on a certain area. When I first ran it after changing the belt, it worked fine, but now it's scraping.

The SoundWell in Berkeley repairs TT's.

Not really anymore. They are only open 1 day a week and they only repair what they plan to sell.

In any event, it sounds like the problems the OP are having aren't complicated. If he comes back to provide more detail about the issues he's having he can probably get solutions.

I doesn't sound like you need any serves persay just someone to help you set up the tables right. I would be willing to help you if you want to bring them over to my house. I'm sure we can get them going just fine. You can send me a PM to exchange info I live in San Mateo.
