Does your cueing work correctly?
Mine hangs and then drops hard.
I discovered the Audiokarma site when I went looking for repair info.
I guess you take it apart and flush/refill the special fluid.
Seems like a finicky and involved process.
Besides the gorgeous real glass and what I believe is teak wood dust cover, having a
human finger actually complete the electrical circuit between those two brass posts to drop the tone arm is a show stopper IMO.
Mine also needs a belt.
One of these days.......
