I have a Systemdek IIX with a Michell branded (Rega) RB300, a new acrylic arm board correct for the Rega mounting distance, and the original glass platter with a Mission Sorbomat platter mat. I use a Michell record clamp. I saw in this thread that one should not use a clamp with this turntable. Why? How could it possibly damage the platter or bearing? Table sounds great to me! Thanks.
Systemdek IIX possible upgrades help needed.
Hi! I have a Systemdek llX table with a Alphonson Opal tonearm pair with a Rega Exact Cartridge. I was planning on buying a new table to upgrade but after much research found I proably wouldnt get much more performance in the table upgrade I could afford which was in the 1200 hundred dollar range. With that said in which direction would I stand to get the most performance in a upgrade. The table has the glass platter & a felt pad with no clamp. Should I upgrade the cartridge & matt? If so what is a good match for the Opal arm? The way I understand it the Opal is a very fine tone arm. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Deanna
