My lovely Garrard 401 now benefits from a Tenuto platter mat and Mk 1 LDA power supply - the PS in particular produced a positive improvement. I'd like to try a new bearing next and was interested in member's opinions. The previous thread about this didn't seem to reach any conclusions, so not really expecting agreement on "the best", but would be keen to hear member's own experiences.

The Peak HiFi SMD Acoustics bearing is readily available - has anyone had any experierience of fitting one of these?

Martin Bastin's name keeps coming up in relation to Garrards, but I can't find any information - can anyone help?

Anything else I should consider?

Many thanks
