I had an old Kenwood DD spinner. Awful. A step down, even, from my dual 1209.
However, I made a GIGANTIC improvement in this machine by junking out the shell and whatever cart I had at the time…..It would have been an M91ED or perhaps an inexpensive Grado….a best buy, at that time.
I installed an expensive…to em…..Ortofon LM20…which was a head-shell-less cart which plugged directly to the end of the tonearm. I had to REMOVE and junk out the counterweight which would NOT adjust low enough for the new cart. I installed the tiny counterweight that came with the cart and borrowed a scale.
A revelation in that it was like buying a NEW record collection. No comparison. Even with that awful, budget TT……
That being said, I was NEVER able to keep vinyl pristine which is why, in '83, I without hesitation after first listen, bought a Magnevox 4x oversample CD player and started buying discs. I made cassette copies for friends and ended up selling a 'bunch' of CD players.
Too much is never enough
