Well Head-fi...I took the plunge and purchased a turn table off of Audiogon today. I've had a collection of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and all the classics that I acquired a while ago and I couldn't stand listening to CD's of them when the real deal was just sitting there
I had a few questions about my setup. First of all, I bought a Music Hall MMF-5 with a NAD PP1. The seller said that the table had about 330 hours on it, and I was wondering if this was high for the table/cartridge. I was hoping to get an idea of how much life the cartridge has left in it before I have to replace the stylus, or the whole thing. It still has the stock Goldring 1012 cartridge btw. Additionally, how long will a table like the MMF last? Will it go out of "true" with time? (as in it starts wobbling or doesn't turn at a constant speed)
Another thing...Are there any mods for the NAD PP1 to "hotrod it" or is it a lost cause? I originally intended to build a bugle, but the NAD came with the table. How does the NAD compare to bugle? Apart from that, let me know if there is anything I need to do to care for my table/records. I will give you my initial impressions when it arrives in a few days
