Yes, but the $50 one will add pace, soundstage depth, and the kind of tonal purity that result in that elusive "OMG" moment. You can even send it out to be cryogenically treated so the molecular structure of the bit are aligned more precisely. Your system will be transformed in ways you could never have imagined <:^)
Spindle Holes
I'm noticing with a lot of new vinyl that the spindle hole is too snug, not only on my turntable but also on my RCM. I had a bit of a mishap earlier this week, and I was wondering what people are doing to counteract this problem. I don't recall it being the case 30-40 years ago when I started in vinyl, so I wonder why is it happening now. Why can't the vinyl producers get the spindle holes slightly wider?
