I'm beyond myself on the actual performance of this combo. I even check the azimuth and the ras and everything it's on part. I'm enjoying it very much thanks everybody setting up the turntable at upscale. Thank you again.

Very happy with my purchase, the TT is everything I could want and very well designed and made. It has taken me a few weeks to like the Ortofon Quintet Black Cartridge and a lot of tweaking with cables and amps. The final purchase to make me feel in love is the Sutherland KC Vibe that allowed me to change the cartridge loading. This cartridge has been described as dark and lacking some excitement in the higher octaves which has been my problem too. The trick is loading, this chick needs to run free range so to speak. 1k ohm and it really opens up, not only in the high end but all through the mid and low end too. I know this is system dependent so maybe 1k is not the load in all systems but worked very well for me. Very happy now and six stars overall.

EAT C Sharp is chock full of state of the art and highly advanced features leaving comparably priced table arm combos in the last century. Just look at it! Even Graham designed the arm! Takes a hammer to the plinth before it will feed back. Add EAT Massive Platter Weight for $175 and sub a Kiseki for the Ortofon which needlessly limits performance. The new package performs like a desert island system. What a deal! RHL
