    You kept that one a bit quiet

    I LIKE that arm design and don't find it ugly at all. I dunno, some people

    That mark 2 mat needs to go though......

    Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me

    I think you originally misunderstood me Dave, i wasnt saying it was ugly, i was saying that if things seem to be ugly to some people they will scrap them even though they may be very good performers.

    Another vote for the TP13A from this corner - a very under-rated arm IMHO.

    So I've read but as I 'inherited' my 150 without an arm or even the board to put one on I'll never know. Hey ho.

    agreed, although wiring scheme is a bit disjointed to my 2012 thinking

    off topic - Beo, you weren't the chap looking for a CD mech for a Beocentre 9000/9500 were you? I recall a post from someone with a Beocentre with a CD hors de combat on a thread I had going on the 'Wam last year.

    This is exactly what I'm looking at now (well not exactly exactly, as that would be theft and very naughty)

    Yes, I was looking for one for a Beocenter 9300 and still am. If anyone has one in their shed, please drop me a line!

    And now back to your scheduled thread....

    Update on progress...

    New plinth under construction, with armboards made to TD 125 dimensions to accommodate wider range of arms. I still have the TP 13a, and now have a Rega R200.

    The Rega has an ADC headshell. would a sumiko headshell work, or would it add too much weight and mass? proposed cart is a DL110.
