My tweaks are as follows:1. Yamamoto HS-4S headshell and wires2. Note, I tried Raul's arm wire change and found that it improved detail, but I thought it was an unnatural sound. An expensive mistake for me I went back to the stock wire.
3. Interconnects are by AudioSensibility Statement OCC Silver. I also tried their copper version of same. Silver a bit more tingly, copper a bit warmer.4. Primary cartridges: Stereo - Ortofon Per Windfeld; Mono Ortofon 2M Mono SE or Audio Technica Mono 33 Anniverary5. Mats - I have several, can't say they make much difference.6. Arm - I have a lot of experience including setting up turntables for a living for a decade back in the 1970s and this arm is among the best. It is very easy to set up. This factor is exceptionally important especially today, when many people are new to vinyl or coming back to it after a long absence. Getting professional help is difficult today. Unless you have a lot of expertise, stick with this arm. You have to go a long way to beat it. Plus it is nice use and nice to have interchangeable headshells.
