ARRRGGGHHHH.
I got it! I honestly just emailed my local VPI guy asking for a quote for the setup, went back for one more try and I hit it.
The problem? The tone arm was not level with the platter. I did one last eyeball, thought it could come down a bit and eureka!
I guess I just needed to by humbled by defeat before I could succeed.
Thanks again for everyone's help through this. Quite a learning experience.
