Do not use George Meyer without performing a thorough WWW search.Then decide.DeKay 
First system
The combo would make perfect sense were it not for bookshelf placement of the speakers.However the LS50’s do come with foam plugs for the ports and hopefully, someone will chime in about their use/sound.FYI LS50’s are currently on sale KEF Direct/... 
I bought an off spindle hole record from Wal-Mart.
If not I'll suggest purchasing all further new vinyl from Trader Joe's.DeKay

Found this instructional video at another site (looks good).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfxNWFWV1QcDeKay 
What is the first album you purchased, and do you still have it?
I have my first 45 RPM single..."Cheyenne/Home on the Range" by The Sons of the Pioneers.Don't recall what my first LP was, but certain that I don't have it anymore.DeKay 
Can I use Contact Cleaner?
shkomg78:I replaced Kontak with the much less expensive MG Chemicals 409B, with same SAME results.DeKay 
Can I use Contact Cleaner?
I use MG Chemicals 409B Electrosolve Contact Cleaner.It's zero residue and safe for plastic.Readily available on Amazon if you don't have a local vendor.DeKay 
Tonearms: Ripoff?
OK, OK, OK...All considered I might just be willing to trade my signed/first edition of "The Celestine Prophecy" for a "nice" Triplanar.DeKay 
Tonearms: Ripoff?
Fascinating...Now DavidO is insinuating that he/she actually does have money and that he/she is an audiophile.Not buying it, and I'm rich, famous and extremely sexy.DeKay 
Your single favorite musician on any given instrument?
George Gobel playing his Gibson L-5CT guitar...Doesn't get any better than that.DeKay 
Tonearms: Ripoff?
Yup, I traded my tonearm (SME) for a signed first edition of "The Celestine Prophecy" and never looked back.DeKay 
JVC VL8 Tonearm weight
What you want is the "effective mass" of the tonearm, which is not the same as the "weight" of the tonearm.Removing/weighing the tonearm would be a waste of time/energy.My guestimate is that the effective mass of your tonearm is in the 13-15 gram ... 
What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far?
#1...George Gobel @ The Sands (Las Vegas, NV) 1961.DeKay 
Repair repair vendor will not respond
Well, I'll be razed in Black.DeKay
