Actually, i quite enjoy "picking up" YOUR garbage : ) Time to clear out the basement again ??? Keep stacking it up, i'll be coming back that way for the Dayton Hamfest again. I don't know if i can get all that "TAD junk" into my car though.... : )As mentioned, i was down somewhere between Dayton and Cinci. I left my house about 3 hours later than expected, so needless to say, it was pedal to the metal the whole way there and back. Of course i took time to stop for some "Cinci Style 5 Way Chili" though. MMMMMM.........
As to the table and arm, i ended up with ( insert drum roll here and expect to hear something that just "might" be familiar to you...) a Sota Sapphire with vacuum, brand new upgraded suspension, new platter, factory dustcover, an ET II arm, the standard factory armboard along with a custom upgraded Sota armboard specifically made for the ET II, an extra arm tube & headshell for the ET II, a "big" vacuum pump with a large external reservior, a "tank" of a pressure regulator, a large aluminum "jig" for setting up the arm, a set of "tip toes" and the factory feet, and a few other odds and ends along with the factory literature and shipping crates for all of the gear mentioned. As usual, i ended up with a GREAT deal and got to meet another "O-hi-O" audiophile that made it well worth the trip.
I was hoping to have more time to spend over there, but things just didn't work out that way. I would have liked to hook up with Steve, my buddy Lou and maybe even swing by your joint, but time or scheduling was not working with me on this trip. I wasn't even sure i was going until i got a phone call at 6:30 this morning from the seller.
I'll have to give you a call sometime soon to ask for "tips & tricks". I can't believe how many "adjustements" this damn arm has on it. Now i know why i've heard people say that it is the hardest arm made to get set up correctly. Sean
