I know some of you guys find this stuff interesting, so I’m going to collect the pictures n stuff here. First up: the arrival. Very well packed with no “new” damage apparent. Platter was removed, as was the headshell and counterweight. Nice pack job.

Everything I read is saying although the replacement stylus/styli sound pretty nice, they cant exactly copy the originals and don't sound as good as the originals...... Anybody??? I see some...
