Fitting upgrades shouldn’t feel like a dark art. In this video I’ll walk you through a clean, step-by-step install on a Rega using the full setup stack: The Funk Firm Houdini (cartridge decoupler / isolation) Rega VTS spacer (to get VTA/SRA back where it should be) Cobra (headshell solution that makes setup easier) Eeze-Lign (our alignment shim that removes the protractor guesswork) The goal: better tracking, lower resonance, cleaner timing, and more music — without the usual “faffing about” with alignment tools and conflicting internet advice. What you’ll learn in this video The correct order to fit everything (so you don’t undo your own work) How the VTS spacer affects VTA/SRA when you add Houdini/Cobra How to fit Houdini safely without stressing the cartridge or cantilever How Eeze-Lign makes alignment repeatable (and why that matters) Final checks before you play a record (and the common mistakes to avoid) Quick note If you’re not 100% confident, take your time and work in good light. None of this is difficult — but it is precise. If you’ve got questions, drop them in the comments with your Rega model + cartridge and I’ll point you in the right direction.
