Thanks for clarification, Tony. It is odd that would use that background image since it has the tonearm on the opposite side and that always bothered me about those mechs. I still wonder why they did that, did they copy someone else's mech and then reverse that part to avoid a lawsuit?!? So odd ro look at, especially for someone who are up with record players for the first 25 years of life. I always loved the 950 and the 850 and they are so out of my price range so I thought I might be able to kill 2 birds with one stone and "kinda" own both! thanks again, Brad
