Joe, Congratulations on getting so far along on the installation! Remember that with the low current in phono connections, the SST will take about 20 hours to fully break in.

Today, so far. The new arm is going through it's run-in. After about 10 hours or so, the highs are still forward and the bass is a tad lean, owing mostly to the burn in needed on the Nordost Valhalla wire and the 20 or more hours needed to cure the Walker Extreme SST on the cartridge pins. running things right now with the mechanical anti-skate in use, no damping fluid in the well and the VTF on the Shelter set at just a nick under 2g. Will leave the VTA as is till things have about 50 hours on them.
Enescu "Sonata No. 3 Op.25 in Rumanian Folkstyle (Wilson Audiophile W 8315)
Stravinsky "Rite of Spring" Maazel/Cleveland Orchestra (Telarc DG 10054)

Slipknot, looks like a nice listening lineup to get that new tonearm introduced to your system!
