many thanks for the links.
Ill knock together a cct that will let me do this. The Cal output my Tek scope with a Low Z output driver might do.

You can do it with a generator signal. You jus tneed a resistor in series with the secondary. Check this link

There's no question that the .22uF on the secondary is non-optimal. That said, it's better than nothing... :)
I love the work you are doing on this! Well done!
Sorry if I sounded harsh or demeaning there. Not my intention :)Quote:

Exactly my thoughts :)Quote:

Surprised there is no interest in this.
Dimmy has forwarded suggested improvements and my own regs, based on Linear Technology chips offer a similar performance, easy to build with low component count. (6/7 per regulator)
Splitting the supply to drive control electronics and motor drive electronics with separate regulators placed close to the Technics PCB is a very good upgrade.
This is not over engineered so very cost effective.
I'm quite interested! It seems to be a well thought out mod and I'd love to try it. :D :D :D
Modding my -1200 is about 5th on my current list of projects, I've got the Pass Sony Vfet guide to write, my SP-10 to complete, the ZenMod "Iron Preamp" to build and make a guide for, the subwoofers for the Linkwitz LXmini speakers to make, and build the Stuart Yaniger "Equal Opportunity" valve phonostage. So actually 5 things in front of it. :eyebrows:
Is this something worthwhile to do if I'm using the stock transformer? If so, I'd be interested.
