I guess it's about time for our William Tell routine.
Just took the plunge and grabbed one of Amazon's last 1200s at that price. Can anyone point me to a good resource on the table for things like tonearm balancing, modifications, etc.

I just bought the Cambridge Audio 540P phono stage.

What are your thoughts on this unit? I'm looking to get a stage and it's right in my price range, so I'm interested.

I've got one, sounds great. I picked it up to use instead of my Technics dmc mixer. I'm setting into the monumental task of making archival rips of all my vinyl.

Does the RIAA equalization make a noticeable difference in sound quality?

My Harmon/Kardon HK670 (made in either '79 or '80) has started to make very loud crackling sounds through the speakers when I turn it on. It also does this when I turn it off, and continues to do so for up to a minute.

Could this be related to capacitors? Any ideas about what is causing this?
