Please help me I am in trouble with my new table..


Hello,

I have been waiting for my cartridge to arrive to set up my new Nottingham Spacedeck w/ Anna arm. This is the first time I have ever attempted to set up a table. I have been getting prepared for this for months. I had everything ready and just when I was almost done I broke a tonearm wire at the clip where it connects to the cart. I can't believe this. I was trying to be as gentle as possible having been warned they were fragile. I am beyond upset. Can someone please tell me how hard this is going to be to get fixed. Can I do it here? This is unbelievable. Please direct me to a thread or how I can get this figured out. I have been buying albums for the past 3 months and now I just feel like I am about to give up. Thanks and sorry for the complaining, just massively disappointed.

Thanks for all the offers of help. The seller took great care of me & repaired the clip. I was lucky enough to have my only local audio friend come by last night & get the table setup. Now I am finally starting to see what the buzz is about vinyl. WOW. I do need advice on setting anti skate on the Anna tonearm. This was the only setting we couldn't get corrected. No matter where we moved the weight it still skates towards the middle of the table at pretty good speed. Am I missing something? Is there a secret to setting this on the Anna arm? Your help is always appreciated. Thanks.

Are you saying the arm does this when you try to play a normal record? If so you have a different problem than just inaccurate antiskating adjustment.

Please clarify and we'll try to help.
