JerryG and String- have no axe to grind re Mr. Rutan, but are you suggesting that the OP take his turntable to the dealers and schlep it home with the expectation that the 'set-up' done in store will be sufficient? Obviously, if Audio Connection makes house calls, that's another matter. I'm not raising this to foist MTrei on the OP or shill for anybody; more interested in your thinking on this. I do think there are fine degrees of dialing in that really can only happen on site.
