In Reply to: RE: Is Soundsmith pretty much it now for a new B&O cart? posted by Awe-d-o-file on February 12, 2015 at 14:42:54
Yes, I poped into a B&O salon last holiday season just for a look-
asked about cartridges - and they gave me a sountsmith card!
I have an old B&O TT - purchased for my then girlfriend (now wife- of 21+yrs)
It was worth it...
Happy listening

I do like them. I had a 3404 in the late 70's with the EN nude elliptical. It was pretty darn good. I'd love to find a linear tracker and service it . That would be worth sinking Soundsmith money into I think. I wonder what linear model is considered the best? 4004? 8002? Anyone know?

Although this turntable has been on the bench many times for adjustments and lamps over the years, it has served me so well. We're talking 35 years here. I bought it in November of 1980. It has treated my records with great care, as have the few B&O cart/stylus and the Soundsmith that's in it now. My 40+ year old records sound like they were just opened.By the way, I have never cleaned my records with anything other than a super soft cloth.
It does well with warped records too!!

Nice! I am a B&O fan and bought my 3404 in about 1979 to improve an acoustic feedback problem with my Denon.

one very nice turntable. Specially that tangential drive for the platter. very stable. once these tables are set up correctly you will have to spend a lot to better it.
I forgot to say I was jealous too
