    clarification-i had a sme IV. if i accidentally inverted the I & V, excuuuuse ME. i did love the sound but really like changing carts so went to a MMT/sota sapphire. a sme 309 would DO but its a money thing, i am not rolling in it.

    the vpi also struck me as a keeper but i sold the tt/arm/cart as the system i bought. the recipient was happy enough to get it. he got about $5k worth of stuff for $900, i had paid $1k for it.

    The dusk cover arrived cracked. It's too bad because the seller packed it extremely well.

    Anyhow, the turntable sounds very liquid.
    I've moved all of gear to the back of the room awhile back, so feedback is not an issue.
    Not sure how much the platter weights but it feels like it weighs more than my Technics.
