Post by robertjame »

Hi all, just validated my membership..... finally acquired a late model oil bearing Garrard 301 today!!!! Planning to talk to Darren again soon (he was really helpful a while back, thanks!) as I covet a twin tier plinth set-up in slate. And now it all got more complicated, well expensive I guess, with the new 40mm slate option..... though I do find the 30mm twin-tier visually the most elegant (from what I can see in the pictures!!)
Struggling a bit now with dreaming of the most suitable tone-arm to go with the 301 and slate..... At least I can more or less quit dreaming about that long-desired 301 now! Anyway just thought I'd post my interest. By the way, I actually AM from the colonies (Kenya) though now well settled in the wilds of Highbury North London! Robert

Hi, welcome to the place, what other kit and plans do you have?
