The Alexandria is an excellent table, but the early ones had a sub-chassis that was made of several plys of different materials and they were known to warp. Once that happens it is impossible to set up the table.
I have a MKI that was upgraded to MKII but has the original sub-chassis and I spent hours and hours on it. I bought the maintenance kit and finally concluded that the sub-chassis was warped but it is so heavy I had a hard time believing it.
I finally boxed it up and a few months later found others who had the same experience. Oracle upgraded to a cast aluminum one on later models.
Unless you can check it out before buying you are taking a gamble. But it does look great and when it was new it sounded very good.

Todd
