In Reply to: heat shrink on the tonearm posted by Frank_Locke on October 29, 2004 at 07:42:30:
The tonearm on my Technics SL-3200 is made of thin metal, (I believe it is aluminum,) and to eliminate or at least decrease tonearm resonance, I put a piece of heat shrink over the arm from the headshell screw to the pivot and hit it lightly with a torch. The wrap dampens the arm vibrations. I've seen people do the same with black plastic electrician's tape, but I think the heat shrink looks better.
