Analog Tube Audio and Slatedeck.
The screening can is discarded (you can't get it over the ATA) although I managed to get one over the Slatedeck.
The Slatedeck also grounds the arm, unless you insulate the RCA sockets. As the ATA is plastic (perspex?) this is not an issue.
The ATA is beautifully made and I have not experienced any problem with the lack of screening. If I were to buy another it would be the ATA, but the Slatedeck seems to be just as good.
There is little difference in fitting them, and I suspect that they are better than the SME kit. I haven't noticed any sonic difference between the two and as one 3009 has the original wiring and the other has a new SME loom and socket it would not be comparing apples with apples.
