Construction
 
Setup
If you have an older glass platter table, especially if it has been moved around, you can greatly restore detail and tame surface noise by cleaning the contact between the platter and whatever it sits on. 1) Clean your hands 2) Use a cotton cloth/underwear with alchohol or windex or even just water on the glass platter 3) use a wet or dry cloth on all other parts (plastic/rubber belts/parts that touch belts 4)wipe everything dry.

ps if the tonearm is old, cleaning it will also improve transient timing ("speed")
