Vantage Audio platter upgrade for Technics SL-1210

OK - so here is a photie - (not very good) of the lifting hooks and a copy of the instructions supplied with the platter upgrade.

OMG! :stalks: It has all suddenly come together with the platter upgrade! Just been blown away listening to some vinyl favourites (Jethro Tull, Dire Straits) - this system has never sounded so together - total system synergy:)

No more upgrades, no more A/B dems - I have arrived :smoking:

Pleased for you Steve ! Looking at your system I'm not surprised , Like Doug Dunlop , Glen Croft is a decca man ! Get the synergy right and there's nothing quite like it .

It something I'm thinking about ? How would a decca perform in a 309 ?

Hi Andy - nothing more to add really - I think my last post said it all :)

I can wholeheartedly recommend this upgrade route - I suspect there is a synergism with the bearing and platter mods so I guess knowing what I know now I would have both done at the same time.

Richard does great work, doesn't he? :)

Cheers...
