RE: Typical "audiophile" ripoff bs.

The TNT Mk5 platter utilizes a "well" bearing; therefore, the recommended lubricant is Mobil 1 or similar. You only need a couple of drops to lubricate the tungsten thrust plate.

Lithium grease is the recommended lubricant for VPI's "inverted" bearing as used on the HRX and Classic TT.

High performance bicycle shops carry some exotic high performance bearing grease that are worth a try.
