Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners


Really like the looks and the build quality of the Nottingham tables, and it does not hurt that I am originally from Nottingham, England to start with...lol
But I have read a few reviews that claim they are pretty tricky to set up and some suffer 60hz hum fairly easily?
Would like to hear from actual owners, your arms, carts etc
Would be upgrading from a Funk Firm Vector with Grado Gold which is deathly quiet as far as hum and in its own right is very musical in my rig.
Thank you

Good luck with the new cueing mechanism!
When my friend brought over that UHQR of COTC I did a 96/24 needle drop and am listening to that right now. It doesn’t get much better unless of course you have a great copy of it on vinyl......🤠

Thanks for the well-wishes with the cueing mechanism.  Am taking the down-time to do some basic maintenance on the arm, even polished the brass counterweight back to a sparkle. Sure looking sweet!
Just a question for Nottingham owners.
What cartridge have you used and thoughts on same for a Spacedeck.
Sumiko Blackbird HO, SAE 1000 LC, Benz Micro MC20E2, Micro Acoustic 630, even a Shure High Track M91E. All sound good, some I believe a little better like the Blackbird which is what I am using at the moment. I'd also be interested in what others have used. Must not be that many Notts owners on this forum?
uberwaltz, anovak

I believe inna is Nottingham fan. He could give you more advice concerning cartridges.
 I once considered them until the dealer and I believe Music Direct sold them at one time and then they disappeared.
No local support killed it for me.
