That Harmon Kardon t/t might be worth keeping just invest in a decent NEW stylus. I just ordered a new Grado cartridge for my 1970's(?) Thorens TD 145 MK II t/t The cartridge is 100 bucks from the Needle Doctor and I hear stuff I have not heard before on my old vinyl. Have 1500 'slabs' of the stuff. Never warmed up to cd's....

Dude from Michigan, Thank you for the above links to the alignment tools. Those will come in handy !



(PS) I just came across a nice AR xa turntable with an Ortaphone stylus (the needle alone retails for about 50 bucks)
I will check it out see how it works.
Let me know if you are interested in playing your vintage record on vintage equipment. I will let it go cheap.
