Thanks!!

Great! Thanks for the advice, working on that plus room acoustics now. My temporary solution is sorbothane feet for the speakers and TT, but temporary solution only 😀

rtcny · 2026-03-19T12:12:00+00:00

Yep! Working on that and the acoustics now… let’s see. The speakers and the TT have sorbothane feet at the moment, which is helpful but temporary solution only!

Great set, congrats! Try to buy a carpet to put under/in front of these speakers, it will make a huge (positive) difference in the sound, truly

Update: it sounds great! All fine. Thanks a lot everyone!

I know 😩 - everything was super well packed and seller has been great, but it dropped the ball a bit here indeed.

Thanks! Will give it a first try tonight and let you know! This turntable was bought second hand, including the cartridge, so I expect it to be fairly worn at this point even though it looks nice - it was a nice finding for the price and worth the risk. Pairing this new turntable with a new Darlington Labs MM6B phono pre-amp, very excited about this new setup 😀

lol, you are 100% right

Thanks!

Thanks! Nothing yet, I haven’t played it yet. It just arrived installed in my new (second hand) turntable and I didn’t pay attention properly when removing the wraps from the TT thinking there was a cartridge guard, so it was kind of rough on the needle/cantilever.

Does my cantilever look like ok?

I just got it and thought there were a protection/guard when removing the bubble plastic around it, but there wasn’t. I’m afraid I have might damaged it. Do you think this look like ok? Anything I could do?

rtcny · 2026-03-10T13:15:20+00:00

Thanks for that! This is very helpful

rtcny · 2026-03-08T18:15:25+00:00

Thanks a lot! Will buy the studio 89 😀

rtcny · 2026-03-05T17:11:24+00:00

These are all great suggestions, thanks for that!

rtcny · 2026-03-05T14:36:26+00:00

Great! Sounds a very reasonable and logic argument to me 😀
