Thank you very much

the cartridge(B&O MMC2) has been fitted to the tone arm( SME 3009 improved S2 fixed head-shell; effective mass 6.5g) when I set the anti skate( using an unpressed record) I found at the indicated(1g) setting on the arm the cart just sat exactly where it landed on the turning record. One notch either side it would drift in/out. I am guessing that's better than expected. I sounds extremely good. A couple of photos... first is of the cart after it was installed, second is the TT

They Said What?

the sound was extremely clear, colorful, warm and rounded, yet leaning more toward neutrality than overly romanticized euphonic sweetness. "Beautiful color saturation," I wrote in my notes. As in yummy.
