In Reply to: How is it going with your Linn project? posted by docw on September 14, 2006 at 11:42:57:
I posted a few days ago, saying i had it updated.
I got a new arm board, and a bottom cover. (a poster said that was basically a waste of money because most people have the bottom covers removed for sonic purposes...I paid $150 for that)
I also got a Grado Gold cartridge, i am just getting some hours on it (maybe 15 so far).
Anyway i swung the arm over to take the record of the spindle, when all of the sudden the neddle crashed onto the arm board....(i forgot that the 707 que rest drops down when it is swung all the way over. None of my other tables i had in the past did this. Right where the lifter screw is it dips down around a 1/8th of an inch, so when swung over, down goes the arm....
Is there a sulotions to this or is it a matter of ALWAYS siting the arm on the arm rest when changing a record?
By the way the Linn is much better than the Dual, the needle i had was shot.Thanks
Mike
