    There you go. It's got my spare ADC arm on it at the moment. The 3009 was taken off yesterday and is being fettled.

    Marco.

    I think the colour scheme of the arm, the clamp and the deck go together quite well. The 3009 will be back on it shortly. The bearing that that the knife edge sits on wasn't pefect so I got a new one. I rewired it with vdh mss-7 and it made a world of difference. The old wire pretty much fell apart in my hands.

    I'm surprised you didn't notice the spunk stain on the side of the deck. Must have been the same bloke that did your 66's.

    You got SME on your profile..I'l eat shit & die if thats an SME!
    If you'd bothered to read my note at the bottom of the post you'd know it's an ADC, fitted while the SME is having minor surgery.
    The Linn is alright for the moment. It got me started again, but will get upgraded eventually. They do ok for £300.

    Here it is with the SME back in action. Sounds bloody good. Problem is that my cdp sounds a bit crap compared with it. I feel some moods coming on.

    Looking good, Mark! I'm not surprised at all about the CDP thing
