You got the SOTA up and running already?
Nice!!
How is the Jelco on it?

Yep. Messaged you, but have a feeling that message has been temporarily lost by the Audiogon gremlins.

The arm came Sunday. Included fastening bolts were too short for my board. Found longer ones, installed, balanced, adjusted, put the Grado on it for the time being, more adjustments....yadayadayada. Spent all last night listening...tweaking...listening.

Sounds fantastic. The Jelco was actually pretty easy to set-up. Not fussy at all.

All in all, a very very nice combo...incredibly pleased....now for the Soundsmith to arrive.
Don’t hold your breath for messages....lol
Actually about lunch it did say I had a message from you but would not let me read it or even see it.

Really pleased for you that it has worked out so well already.
I think it will be another huge leap with the Soundsmith.
Now you will really hear what your records can sound like.

I ponied up and bought an Origin Live Encounter Mk3c tonearm for the Avid.... we will see.

Fantastic! The one that was listed here? Was that an Encounter?

And yea, I was incredibly surprised the arm came as fast as it did, and Sunday delivery by DHL. I wasn’t expecting it until mid week this.
