"I was looking at the enzymatic cleaners to see if that might be the missing piece. The audio intelligent stuff is reasonably priced, How would I use it in combination with the Spin Clean?Rebbi"You choose a thick towel, any color will do , but I p...

AlwebbI don't think I am anywhere near breakin with barely 10 hrs playtime. The Bassline uses pretty decent gauge copper wire. There is greater clarity in the midrange, bass is tighter and the upper frequencies a wee bit cleaner. I also swapped th... 
Spin Clean seems to add noise to records?
I have been very happy with my Spin Clean. I don't use it in isolation. You may want to do a brief manual scrub with one of the AVIS or similar enzyme cleaners, dry the LP and than a few twirls in the Spin Clean. I use the Spin Clean fluid.Best 
Whats your take on the Ortofon SPUs?
Congrats on a lovely looking system. I briefly had a Ortofon Silver Meister SPU mounted on a Garrard 401 with a 309D arm. This didn't work for me for the reason you mention, alignment. The customised Mint LP protractor I have is optimised for the ...

BEST CART FOR SMEV12 ARM at TW BLACK NIGHT TT
DreamaudioIf you are enjoying the Rega stay with it. If you have a friendly dealer or an even more friendly audio buddy willing to bring his phono over, thats the best way to go with a home demo. Whats your budget and do you prefer SS or tubes ? M... 
Big cartridge screws?
PopsAbsolutely correct, every time you change one parameter it effects everything else. I set VTF after all other adjustments are made ie the cart is aligned with a MintLP. I only adjust the cart screws to get the overhang and align the cantilever...

Congrats Elegal. The Orpheus L is a superb cart. Did you get a new cart ? I had one for many years and this is no simple tweak but a huge upgrade. Am now plying a Proteus and this maybe a better cart than the Orpheus L.Cheers
