Graham Phantom damping fluid level.
Frank_sm, 2 mm is from the end/tip. I agreed with Sirspeedy, a little change in fluid will change the sound. Good amount of fluid plus right VTF can get the best out of the Phathom. Too much fluid makes dynamice slow and sluggish. 
Koetsu Urushi + MC step up transformer
I have used Urushi for almost 20 years and had used it with a pair of KPA as phono pre-amp. Now I have Ensemble Ponobrio and set loading at 132 ohmn. Over the years I set at around 100 ohmn. I have friend whose loading set at 47K. Since you don't ...

SME 20/2 & Graham Phantom issue
Hello jameswei,it still sounds good if you position your Phantom tonearm in a bigger angle to fit your VPI ring. The TT and tonearm geometry isn't correct. It is ok but not maximize your Phantom performance. I know Granham makes a armwand that is ...
