I finally got the Garrard 401 up and running. This thing about having to have a day job really interfers with one's ability to do audio.So how does it sound? The sound is sooooo musical. Huge soundstage. I use Jennifer Warnes: Famous Blue Rain Coat, Bird on A Wire cut to set VTA. She was right there in my living room. I kept listening to her sing rather than listen to VTA. What kind of audiophile am I?
Still a few more tweaks to go: outboard power supply, damping of spindle bearing, removal of eddy brake linkage ( not brake ;-) ). Once that is done I will compare it to my 'audiophile approved' TT and see what the differences are.
