Cagey, I have a sainsburys DVD player at the bottom that's in there temporarily. I only have maybe 10 CDS and they'll go when my Streamer arrives and I go to FLAC.

Did you make the mini table sitting on top of the Kallax to put your turntable on? (neat idea)

Another quality Jap D/D (along with the Pioneer PL-71, Pioneer PLC-590, Sony PS-6750 and Technics SL-1200/1210, amongst many others), which we never got to appreciate properly here in the UK, due to the Linn/Rega/Michell, etc, 'belt-drive brainwash', back in the day...
Enjoy

Thanks Marco, I followed Geoff's suggestions. He is very convincing. He's right too. Sounds great to my ear and will hopefully be better when I get the Acutex 410e on it. Also rewired the spare wand tonight too. I'll put a thread up about that thoughLove your T/T and tonearm, Oliver. Looks just like Geoff's!
