KISEKI PURPLE NS your reviews....
@andychris Funny what you say about shelling out on a cartridge - a bit like the fat man with small eyes described in the Grapes of Wrath. You get rich then get stressed out over something - same thing with cartridges - you can afford them now and...

Has anyone here restored a Sony TTS 8000 platter or a similar strobed platter
The YouTube videos contrary to my skepticism were quite good @millercarbon . @br3098 I am surprised what you say about the deck. As it happens I am also restoring a jvc tt101. I am going to sell my emt950 project as I have no space left for it - i... 
KLAudio is stopping production of their Ultrasonic record cleaner.
