I've just finished mounting my SME 309 on my SL1210. It sounds great!

The only problem I had with setup was the HTA adjustment. I had to adjust the hole base manually, which wasn't ideal for aligning the tonearm to the protractor. I could not get the HTA screw into the adjustment hole as the tool was impeded by the top of the armboard. I could not get the tool in the hole as I could not get it parallel enough.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Cheers,

Adam

What brand of armboard are you using?

I'm not actually sure. I was told that it was the TimeStep one, but I have my doubts.
