As a bonus, both Brian and Elliot are very nice people. I can't vouch for Elliot as a turntable technician, as I purchased only amplifiers from him. He had a store front at the time, but I believe he now retails out of his home. Brian has a dedicated turntable workspace, with all the high-tech tools needed for assembly, adjustment, and optimization of tables, arms, and pickups. He was trained by his Pa, the well-known analog expert Brooks Berdan (R.I.P.).
