About a year ago I bought a new turntable (Dr. Feikert Volare) and complementary equipment. I had it assembled by a local technician as I have two left thumbs when it comes to DIY. (I know this is not a good trait for a turntable owner to have.)
I’ve been dissatisfied with the sound for some time. But I recently discovered that by tweaking the anti-skating, the sound improved dramatically. I’m now wondering what other parameters have changed during the past year.
So, not being able to tweak those other parameters myself I’m thinking of hiring the technician to come to my home to work on it. Since it sounds so good now, I’m wondering if it’s worth the expense. (He won’t be cheap.)

If you want the best from your table, hire a setup guy if there is one available in your area. It gave me the piece of mind it was done correctly.

I know little about turntables but, yes, it's puzzling why anti-skate adjustment leads to big difference. I remember spending 15 minutes to find the overall best point but the differences were small. Nottingham table/arm.

I would invite an expert to check everything.
