Didn’t work with an earlier Aries 3 with the peripheral ring as there was not enough space between the arm and the ring. Carlo made me a custom one with an offset. Should arrive soon.

Also did not work with my super scoutmaster turn table. No room to fit it in.

I have one on my Prime Signature. I sometimes have to push the lifter down more than once to get it to stay down, but otherwise it works well. (I brought it from another source.)

Same for me, I have played with the screw and I have it as best set I can, but the operation can be wonky. It rarely goes up like in the video, sometimes it takes 20-30 seconds for it to fully lift the arm.

But at least it lifts it......I still very much appreciate Ivan offering these to us.

I think there is something to the angle of the antenna thingy and the lift itself along with the screw. If it really doesn’t work, Carlo will make it right. It has a lifetime guarantee.

I contacted Carlo and he said to tighten the top set screw a tiny bit. That seemed to work. (It's very sensitive, so even a small adjust has too strong of an effect--it didn't trip at all when I first tightened. I kept backing off and I think I've hit the sweet spot!)

Integrity Hi Fi is now offering a stylus cleaner as well that attaches to the plinth and allows for the stylus to be cleaned prior to setting down on the record.
