JVC TT101 QL 10 PLINTH ISSUES

I got my JVC TT101 fully sorted out by Wllkinsons in the UK.

Unfortunately when it was sent to me the morons that are USELESS PARCEL SERVICES broke the lid and the feet.

Now I am in a conundrum.

1. Is the QL10 plinth worth keeping?
2. If worth keeping do I run it stock?
3. Do I do any mods to the plinth - if so, what?
4. what feet should you get for the turntable?

thanks

The arm it came with is an audio technica at12 that was mounted 15mm too close from spindle to pivot - god knows how he aligned the cartridge


the usual turntable expert dog will have mounted it

These feet are universal, they don’t have to be screwed in the plinth, just put them under your plinth (they can support from 10 to 60kg).
pity that they are rare to find, and your sales are overly expensive; when I can advise the Isoacoustics, the cost is economically bearable and they extend many pounds.

it would not have been difficult to unscrew 3 screws after removing the platter and only send the motor so as to avoid damaging the plinth or the cover, which is also simple for a woman.
The repairer just had to adjust the engine.

 However, a first principle for shipping a turntable is to separate and isolate dust cover, platter, and chassis from each other, in separate boxes if necessary.

Correct!

I've become vintage while listening to vintage turntables and other vintage gear. It's a comfort.
