Tom - Modest MM cartridges and most MC's need to track at 2 gm's or more and those arms may never have even adequate.Not meaning to be a wet blanket or Buzzkill", but it sounds as if those tables,(particularly the Realistic) are limiting to the degree that being utilized in a Marine Sanctuary a part of an artificial reef would be a more fitting use ;-)
You can find some very solid and compitent Vintage table/arm set ups for $35 to $150, (oft times all they need is to cleaned up, lubricated and a few hours or days run in) Some worthwhile TT's are $10 to $15 at a Thrift if you get there first.Then get a new Cartridge, surprizingly nice sounding and cheap, AT 95E $30 110E $40 an Shure M97 XE $55.00 these are all incredible values have new suspensions and styli and maintained properly are going to allow you to preserve your favorite records rather than
attriting them more with each listen.With some of those el cheapo Plastic POS faux tables were nothing to shout about when they were brand new,now they're just really old el cheapo Plastic POS faux tables and nothing you could do short of replacing every single part with real parts except the nameplate would ever have them being even marginally adequate.
