When leaving for the Middle East in 2012 I packed up the Xerxes, CD player and stored them in the loft, just took a Squeezebox Touch and Benchmark DAC1 for streaming, since replaced with Weiss DAC202 and Auralic Aries Mini. Have been back for a year or so and only just got round to unpacking the TT, almost a decade since it last saw light. Setting up was fine, I'd bought the new blobs around that time, they were still in the packaging and now installed. New belt fitted and bearing oil replaced (ball bearing is in place). Motor was doing some funny things, even got it to go in reverse at one point, I think it was interference from power cables as did some re-arranging and running fine now. The DV-20X was still on the arm but knackered, since replaced with AT-OC9 after a quick discussion on here. Sounding very good, it's a lovely deck, less than 2mm sag - lucky me. Rest of the system is NAC102 modified by Avondale and a pair of their M130s into Shahinian Arcs.
