Opus, I did not encounter any real problems and set the cart and tonearm up in a ball park configuration in less than 2 hours. I used the TW - supplied spindle to pivot device as well as the cart alignment device (used Baerwald). Onve in the ball park a few days later I spent a couple of hours using a custom Mint LP for the TW 10.5.
The XV-1S was a snug fit but I did have adequate room and tonearm wire length. I really like how the XV-1S mates with the TW 10.5. A great match - musical yet dynamic, great sound staging and super low noise floor.
