I do however have a Graham Phantom that’s been sitting unused in a box.
plan B will installing the Graham be overkill on a Garrard 301 ?
What other 9 inch arms should I consider, I’m very wary of looking at vintage stuff I just don’t have the necessary experience / technical understanding to tell a pukka one from a duff one.
I should add the plinth was ordered with an SME cut out.
