Already to setup my new Turntable and it was damaged by FEDEX.
Maybe UPS is the way to go.
Captian winters,
Thanks so much for the information regarding the thump problem. I will go to Radio Shack just in case I face the same thing.
Hi Captian winters, I haven't set it up yet. I'm looking for someone local who's familiar with VPI's. I've done some minor work on my Oracle Delphi MK-ll, which is a way different design. But if I don't find anyone I will just go for it very slow.......
The photo would be great thanks.Replacing the capacitor I can do for sure. I used to be into Ham Radio 25 years ago. Built many antennas and other things.
Hi Captian winters, I finally have time to setup the VPI Classic 3 on Saturday. I will let you know if I need any advice. Thanks.
Hi Bifwynne,

I'm waiting for my new Classic 3. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, that it's as good as everyone is saying.
Thanks for all the info.
I have a Benz Micro Wood Series 2. They made 3 versions
MC-H2, MC-M2 & LC-2. Mine is the MC-2. I have on another table, I was going to use. But I was told that VPI'S are not a good match for this cartridge.
Any comments please?
Thanks for getting back to me with all your info.
I will be getting my Classic 3 on Monday. I'm looking forward in putting in my 2 cents on here, about my new table.

Cheers, Alan2
Hi Bifwynne & Roscoeiii,
Nice to meet both of you. And thanks for the kind words.
First time I've ever had a shipping problem. It's going on 10 years since I've been on Audiogon buying, selling & trading gear. I guess my luck ran out.By the way, after I opened the boxes and put the turntable on my rack. Then saw this big corner smashed in, right above the A.C. Plug-in. My girlfriend left the house....And I poured more then one drink of Scotch.
Thanks for getting back to me both of you. That's a great idea having it sent to your local Fedex Store. Also Yes wives & girlfriends and Audio, sometimes can present problems. There have been many break-ups because of Hobbies.
Bifwynne,
Yep, that was a great Linda Ronstadt Album. And regarding having an audio addiction. It's been since 1968 for me.
