I don't suppose any of you nice folks happens to have the manual for the Technics SL-5 DD linear tracking turntable? I am giving the one I have to the son of some friends. It's a decent and easy to use tt, but not quite trivial for someone who's not use to vinyl ("cueing"?). I don't have the manual, nor did a quick Google turn one up for download online.

Please PM me if you have it in electronic form, or could scan it.

I'd be most appreciative.

I got a couple of manuals for Technics gear from Panasonic.

Just for grins, some photos of das Ding an sich

THanks!! Never thought of checking the Vinyl Engine for a deck as prosaic as this one. Silly me...

Nice little TT especially since you can use you own interconnects instead of cheapys that come with most TT's My suggestion is a nice Grado Red P mount cart. really makes it sing I use one and works great with no fiddling:music:
