Hi All
So i finally managed to source this beauty and buy it, please see the pictures:
What do you reckon, looks like its in really good condition, just needs a service and setting up really. I am tempted to pull it all apart and do some modification though.
One thing i am not sure about is the spring systems (are those spring original) as its really bouncy, what i mean is the two springs by the turntable are quite stiff it seems, but the one by the tonearm feels soft and to bouncy, is that normal? Generally it feels too bouncy to me but i again i don't know if thats normal for this turntable.
Any tips would be wonderful, i do have the manual which i am currently reading. Is there any UK builders here? someone you can recommend to help or even perhaps do the refurbishment for me and do some modifications?
My thoughts were a better power supply, new rca connectors, maybe a new tonearm (or just use the original but replace the wiring), heard a great number use hurst motors? anyway ill keep this thread updated!
Thanks all
