Glad it is working out, David. There are a lot of good points to the Garrard Zero

series of turntables. They get considerable bad "press", but most of it is unfounded. They are very well made and the motor is near bullet proof. They use metal in places where a lot of the competing brands use plastic to cut costs. The arm is a bit quirky and the changer mechanism, which I am using for playing 45's, seems jerky but it works well.

What cartridge are you using in it? Currently I have an old Pickering V15 Micro Type IV that sounds pretty good. I have also tried an old Radio Shack V series (made by Shure) that worked well. I have several of the slide in cartridge carriers, so I can experiment with different cartridges.

One thing you said, that did surprise me. The "frown" combined with the "intense staring" didn't help, in your situation. Did you also accompany this with several curse words and gnashing of teeth? That might have been the missing ingredient, as it worked for me. :-)
