The kenwood will be good, james d brought a 990 to owston a few times and it was very very good

Give the pots a really good spray with servisol first, i found on the sl150 that the pots were actually fine, just awfully grotty because they hadnt been twiddled in years. I actually quite like the 150. Not sure where it actually is at the moment

Quartzlock and fully automatic, jvc ql-y3f and ql-y5f, and denon dp47. I wouldnt mind a dp47 myself, but i have nothing set up, havent had for 6 months. Maybe at some point. I have a y3 and a y5, not a lot between them but i like the 5 a bit better

I have found a load of iroko hardwood id planed up for some reason if you want that for a case

Whichever dates fine steve

Acoustic alchemy - 33 1/3 and blue chip

If i remember that is for a little clip to hold the nima arm cable

Me too steve, could bring a few bits. No speakers though sadly

Should have a wall thickness with the offset hole of 1.5mm at the thinnest point which you should just about get away with depending on the thread used on the outside for a securing nut

Exactly that ray, Or even simpler, print up a boss that goes all the way through the plinth with a thread on it so that you can put a big nut on the underside of to secure it, offset the arm pillar hole in it so you rotate the boss to align it, and have a shoulder on the top that sticks up by 4 - 5 ...

What i would do would be to 3d print (machine up in my case when i finally get my underground lair sorted in the cellar) a round thin plate, say 3mm thick with a raised 23mm circular section in the centre that will key into the existing arm hole.
Turn it over so the flat side is up, Shove the 23mm ...

As far as i can remember the M/S arm has a longer pivot to spindle distance than a nima to the tune of 3mm.
This 3mm is quite a lot. Issues being that the 222 of the nima and the hole diameter at the arm mounting point might not allow you to get it mounted at 225mm. Without hacking into the perspex ...

Finally got a bit of music back, got the headphone amp and the little wiim mini connected up. And the wifi extender sorted out. Havent put anything on yet but a little bit of progress

Leave it in there, why not?

I did really like your 301 paul, it does a certain something, with the audiomods arm on it in that plinth i made, it sounded really well.
Ive had so many dds over the years and they do something else.

I havent got any music at the moment, have all that kit and nowhere to put it...its doing my head ...
