Nottingham Spacedeck Set up?


This is my first high end turn table, I recently upgraded from a pioneer my dad gave me. The table is very nice but I feel it is still lacking something. I did not have it professionally set up as I got it second hand and so far I have just left it how the previous owner had it set up.

I need advice on how to properly set it up.
I feel it needs more bass and fuller vocals.

Here is my setup at the moment
-Space deck/space arm
-Cartrige that came with table I believe it is Nottingham's
-Grado Phono
-Classe CP-50
-Parasound HCA-3500
-Paradigm Reference Studio 80's

(as a further note this system started out as my home theater and I have been slowly breaking it off into its own two channel system, and about two or three years down the road I will get speakers specifically for my 2ch setup)

I am in Austin too, and actually just sold my Spacedeck to another guy here in Austin, hwever I did not use a Spacearm.
I think your best bet would be Sound Mind Audio and Brian Kurtz, but he does charge for this service to those who haven't purchased their table from him.

Most others that I know who own a Spacedeck locally, actually do not use the Spacearm, don't own the table anymore, or had Brian set it up for them.

Also I assume you have seen the minimal set-up instruction on the distributor's website, but just in case.

But anyhow I would be willing to help you out as much as I can, drop me an email if want.
