Hi, thank you very much for your video.. i am restoring a Thorens TD125 mk1 with Sme 3002 series 2 (non improved). I noticed that the second piece of the balance weight is missing.. i can reproduce it with my lathe, but i would need dimensions and weight .. But the user manual says that can be removed , and used only when the cartridge/shell is very "heavy" or with a tracking force over 2.5 grams.. what do you think about? thanks!
Thanks very much for the video demonstrations! Please excuse my ignorance, but is this a Series II tonearm? I have a Series I so I'm curious if the process is similar.
Hi, this is the first SME 3009 series (you can tell by the plastic /Bakelite headshell) , Then was replaced by the SME3009 series 2 improved , witch has no improvement in perfornance over this one, this is the go to vintage SME arm. It can take a regular screw in headshell as long as you align the cartridge. Hope this helps.
Where can I get wires and the cable like that?
