Another step closer. Today I shipped my SME 309, with all the accessories I had, and Grado Sonata Statement cartridge off to SOTA via FedEx. It should get there Wednesday. Based upon SOTA's typical lead time allowance, I should have my new Sapphire VI 'table sometime in late May–early June.
At this point, I'm hoping mostly for no surprises that up the cost. Any excitement is on hold until arrival is imminent. Meantime, there are also rumblings about layoffs at work. We'll see.
