Re: VPI Signature 21 Turntable.
My weight will be here on Friday!!
A shop here in town (Progressive Plastics) is making me a custom dust cover, said it will be done in a week. $185.00 not a bad price..
Would like to see pictures when you get it.

Re: Tolerance with electrolytic caps
I just replaced a motor run cap in an old Sony TC-500A reel-to-reel tape deck.

This is actually a film cap in an Aluminum canister. It's 1.5uF 470V 5%, made by Kemet. The motor was bogging down when under load, and this new cap seems to have fixed it. From what I read, it is a common problem in the old Sony RTR decks.

Re: VPI Signature 21 Turntable.
It might just make sense, and simpler to get the ADS when I’m ready to go down that path. 😁

Re: Should I keep my amp cool?
My first AVR wasn't high-end but it wasn't crap either. It was an Onkyo 807, 7.2 receiver, 135wpc x 2ch drvn.
It got so hot it eventually fried the HDMI board. As this was a common "flaw", Onkyo did an out of warranty repair. I've been running fans ever since. The little Onk that could is still going like new.
There you go, a design flaw......sounds like they stood behind it.

Re: Polk CSI40 w/ Polk Monitor 7
I’m reconsidering the CSI40; I definitively think I can make it work with my space, which begs the question again: is it a close enough match to the monitor 7?

Re: VPI Signature 21 Turntable.
I have the ADS. Not sure it’s necessary but it makes fine tuning the speed incredibly easy, won’t need to mess with belt tension if you want it perfect. Congrats on the table. Sorry I couldn’t come through but think you’ll love the table you picked up. The gimbal bearing is likely less fussy than the unipivot in the end as well
