Single Phase Variable Transformer (Variac)

Myself and other members have had Very positive results using this
Variac Single Phase Variable Transformer
with the Garrard 401 idler.

Very Noticeable lift in sound quality when taking the voltage down to 200v - 220v

Only selling as the Garrad 401 went a while a go and this is now surplus.

A real worth while inexpensive tweak for the idler, that works a treat!

Mint condition with original box packaging

I Paid £180 for it last year... so will sell for to AoS members for just £100
collected from Barnet area
or drop off within reasonable distance at my convenience.

Prefer not to post as it is very heavy!

That's a posh one with meters incorporated, well done on offering a great price :cool:

It has prompted me to dig out my little 1A variac and try it on the Lenco, cheers.
