What turntables do you use? Pictures would be nice as well :-)

Yes I bought them several years ago before they became really popular for a lot less than a 12” SME 11 or 12” Schick. First one for a Denon 103, and found it was quite good, then the std one for 2M Black ( and other MMs) and at last the one for SPU-A. Great tonearms. I initially planned to ask Bokrand to modify the std one, but found it quite good as is. I have parts ( bearings) for the std one if it needs uppgrading. The only service it needed was regluing the antyskate magnet.

On the very first page of this thread there was praise for a good dust cover. I second that.

A good thing about this non hinged one is that you can put it on the floor upside down with cat sand in it if you don’t like dust covers. On the other hand if you have a cat you probably like your dust cover too.

First post. I've gone through multiple pages of this amazing thread and spotted a couple of TW AC-3s but not this model. Raven One/Graham Phantom II/Kiseki Purple Heart NS into an Allnic H3000. Massif Audio rack sitting on a concrete floor with Isoacoustic Orbea footers under the isolation platform. The rack is in a room separate from the listening room. The small footprint of the table has its advantages.
