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

Just added a Funk Firm Achromat 3mm to my space deck and a little more realism and air to the proceedings now.
Certainly worth $99.

So Notts owners, looking for some bang up to date information all in one place, here..lol.

Looking to change out the flavour a bit by buying another cartridge.
Present is Shelter 501 mk3, no intention to get rid of it but would like to try something different.
Budget say $1500 to $2000.
Thoughts?

Uber, an alternative suggestion. Don't know if you use US cleaning, but if not, that would be a big improvement. Another big improvement would be the Trans-Fi arm; that would leave you with enough extra to get a torque screwdriver to optimize cartridge mounting.

Terry I do us clean, and yes it was a big improvement all round
Had not considered an arm change at all

The change to my NAS Mentor (early model replaced by Dais) from NAS arm to Trans-Fi air bearing arm was dramatic. My NAS Mentor experience was, and is, very good, and only beaten out by my DIY air bearing TT. I have nothing but good to say about Trans-Fi and their air bearing arm - I now have two of them, one for each TT.
