newbie - learning bout vinyl

c0redumpt · 26th May 2009, 01:57 PM

gday all,

As a newbie on here just thought I'd say hi. Am beginning to play around with hifi and am reading and researching on various topics with the hope of one day jumping into diy.

I am a vinyl novice and have a garrard 401 and sme 3012 arm at the moment waiting to be setup with a nice plinth.

I have no idea about vinyl, have read a bit about the various protractor tools for aligning turntable/tonearm but really need some advice.

I'm looking at getting a template for the 401/3012 at the moment so that i can trial a simply plinth before I look at multi-layer designs or slate. So any advice would be great (even a template for a 401 / 3012 would be nice).

look forward to any replies
