Wow! My deepest thank you for all the information. I have to say I was a bit frustrated with initial listening, however it seems that its always something I did not do right to this point. Initially I still had the stryo locking the legs to the sub-chassie, so it was not floating. I did use Tonywinsc advice, the sub chassis did lean heavy on the left as you said and I was able to balance with lead.
Issue 1 - it seems the "weight" of the arm is too much for my Benz cart, even with the VTA in the highest position and no tracking weight, the needle was bending. I took that off and put on the Dyn 20 and it sounds pretty good, but I was looking for fantastic and its not there yet.
Issue 2 - the vacuum pump. I do hear it working when I have it connected to the table, and I can feel it working harder when I turn up the vac level. I did open the unit (its in a all black wood case with silver face) and saw nothing odd. I see 2 hoses, 1 from the pump deep in the back, going into a little air container and then a hose coming out that should have suction. Its a tight space and I was worried about doing damage,
Thank you again and any other suggestions would be very welcome! Happy NY !!
