@boxer12 Tim, we’re collectively holding our breath awaiting your impressions on the Thales. Did you start/finish the arm board?


@tomic601 Yes Jim, I enjoyed our chat and look forward to our next.

@emailists All I have to do is walk across the floor and my tone arm goes hopping.  Tiptoe is the rule.🤣

Hey Dan,

Yes, the Corian board is installed. My first impression of this arm is very positive but I’m going to hold off on a mini review until I get some more hours on it. I want to wait until the "newness" wears off a bit, & the actual wire in the tonearm is broken in. FWIW, this is the simplest arm I've ever set up. The template supplied with the arm is first rate.
