Ron: You don't absolutely need to remove the pickup arm from its mount. I'm sure that it was rarely ever done, anyway. And, since the changer is already out of the cabinet, you can just turn it upside down and go to work.
I have another W-C 256 changer in rough shape, and a Sonotone already in it. It doesn't look like much of a job to make the conversion. Now, since the cartridge is probably lighter than the original one, you can probably just forget about fooling with the counterweight.
NOW JOE: Can you describe that Ronette that you're talking about? Is it a dual stylus job, or what? It appears to me that Ronette came in several forms, and so I have no good idea what you're looking for.
