    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    So it's got the box so no excuse. Surely oracle will have a solution - I'm waiting for their response but the auction finished tonight and my bid won. I guess worst case I buy a new motor unit.

    As far as I'm aware, most Oracles had/have DC motors, so this is probably a simple matter of just changing a mains transformer. What model is it?

    [QUOTE=farflungstar;905329]Ok so my bid was the winning bid and I'm now the proud owner (until it's shipped lol) of a mint condition Oracle Delphi mkiii.

    I always wanted a Delphi - so this has been a long time coming. It's sooooo beautiful wth it's smokey green acrylic.

    First problem is a step down transformer to 117v - next is the 60 to 50hz conversion - have emailed oracle so hopefully they will have a solution.

    Any other suggestions from you guys regarding getting the best from this beautiful deck?[/QUOTE

    It's the Model 3, and the Reed will be going on the SP10. Not sure what arm I'll buy for the oracle...

    I have a new Jelco TK-850S coming shortly, to evaluate. Should be interesting because it’s much more solidly engineered where the Jelco 750 series arms are not!

    What did you pay for it ?

    I have an unused, boxed Oracle which I will be selling later in the year and it would be good to know a reasonable price.

    Thank you.

    I think it's a Mk2 but will check when I get it out of storage.

    I bought it from the customer's Wife along with an unused ARC SP8, Krell KSA100 and Maggies. The Wife wasn't pleased when he took that lot home and it helped cause their divorce. He never had time to use any of it, so the Oracle is in it's box exactly as I sold it to him, still has the shrink wrap on the perspex.

    The MK3 has some subtle improvements over the 2 - even so I would have had it and not had to worry about step down transformers and pulleys!

    What happened to the Krell?
