What is a good entry level turntable?
Restored Technics SP10 not only good entry level but good for life for the price you're ready to invest. It accommodates many arms, but to start with you go with SME3009 s shaped arm that was often used in this deck.Musical Fidelity X-LP is excell... 
Audio Research discontinuing lower lines components?
Meat industry is just as crooked and corrupt as high-end home audio.Unless you're going to the butcher and asking for real cut off the flesh, Prime ain't no prime. It's just like most of specks on home-audio equipment are cut-paste and not measured. 
Why would anyone want 180g records ?
Vintage London FFRR blue backs and most of vintage HMV UK shaded dogs are over 200g. Still wonder what can sound better than those once pressed very long time ago. Most of german DGG with tulips on label were 180g+. I would wonder what records in ...

No bass with new turntable?
As I figured and many did, "listen for ...hours" would not help the main issue. The low price tag perhaps made manufacturer(or dealer) be negligent to details and quality of assembly and setup.If you have tiny pliers something like in Leatherman p... 
Kimber 8TC beater?
Kimber 4TC is the most neutral speaker cable that does not alter any recorded material. It's perfect for near-field speakers and mastering.  
I think I've Just Seen Absolute Proof That Audiophiles Are Insanely Gullible
I once had been in Epicure grocery "ultra natural and organic and super duper healthy yadadada" store in South Beach where one apple as an example would worth about $10(looked kinda shiny and covered with glaze) and a bar of soap $250. In my past ...
