No problem.
The arm is an Audio Technica AT1010 from the early 80's
It has been tweaked by a chap so that the (better) cable goes from the tags to the base of the arm so reducing the connectors and the bearings have also been upgraded (this is his Mk8 version so he has been tweaking these for some time and knows his onions).

The turntable is a Technics SP10 Mk2 which has the motor unit sprayed black and it sits in the original Obsidian plinth, dates from the late '70s I believe.

Best I have heard ever (and I have heard a lot)

The Trio 1033 is a great turntable so enjoy.
