I sub the pcb boards assembly to an outwork company. I will moan at them for you. I obviously check the ones I use, but this is your project so get on with it, moany git.Quote:

Not moaning grumpy git!
Anyone who buys 'bare bones' stuff to fit themselves won't be bothered by something that simple, and that includes me! :lolsign:
Just 'bantering' in good humour! :ner:
Anyway.... I'll start a new thread to continue this sometime soon and delete some of this 'Mike & Richards bantering room' stuff to allow the thread to at least look like it's on topic.Unless anyone would like it to remain 'as is'?
'Later' folk's, I've got some serious cooking to do, a nice Kashmiri Rogan Josh doesn't cook itself you know! ;)
ta ta for now. :wave:
Anyway back on topic
I have just taken delivery of an ex DJ 1210.
It will be a little fun project in my quiet times (if I ever get any). I will mod and rebuild it using principles and things learned in the design of the NVA senior T/T (never to be made again) dating from 1990. But sorry they will be my secret :ner:
C'mon Richard, get those hands in the air and kick up a fierce one!
:gig:
Excellent, this is very exciting indeed, as it appears that no one else in the UK has really put their hand up and had a bash at one these sleeping giants. I know this is Kevin's (KAB) fear, but I guess it had to happen sometime.
I'm sure a few of us on here will be very interested in your findings. :)
Yes, Richard, do let us know how you get on :)
Are you retaining the stock arm?
You *might* even manage to report on your findings before I get round to writing my review! :lol:
Nicky boy,
I took delivery today of one of Thruno's '3-piece suite' brass counterweight balances. It's excellent, but you're lucky you have that extra weight on top of your nude 103 Pro because if I use all three brass weights I can only get 2.1g VTF with my Denon, and that's with all three counteweights pushed as far forward towards the pivot point as possible...
I'll dick around a bit at the weekend and add a touch more mass at the headshell to enable me to use all three counterweights, and thus allow me to position them ideally (as close to the pivot point) as possible, and obtain the correct VTF. I usually find 2.6g ideal.
I just thought I would report on this :)
Marco.
Its my fun so :ner:Quote:

I have ideas to simulate a greater number of poles in how the motor is driven. Also the motor needs very much lower impedance feed. There is still backlash in the motor.
I have just finished my last bit of fun / project of taking the cheapest CD player you can find on ebay, originally sold by Richer Sound - the Eclipse CD101 - you can get them on ebay for about a tenner - and rebuilding it with killer powers supplies and some component changes and it makes a CD player to kill for. It just happens to have one of the best sounding transports ever made and is extremely long lived and reliable. Anyway now it no longer has a mains lead but has a seperate PSU box or two seperate box PSU's depending on how far you take the mods. I have surepticiously bought 10 of them on ebay over the last 6 months, so keeping a couple for myself there will be 8 going up on ebay at some stage.
C'mon all you amateur techies. Buy some of the cheapest **** you can find on ebay and have fun. It is the techie version of Jerry :lolsign:
Marco, yes lovely pieces aren't they. It was a bit of guesswork really, but luckily it works out fine for me. I'm not butted right up against the pivot, but pretty close.
I havent spun any vinyl for 7 weeks now, the chap building my pre has had family illness problems and is running a month late. I'm beginning to climb the walls. My Quad actives are much better now they run from dvd player rather than ipod, the same chap is going to mod these too in the near future, so I should have an excellent system by the summer.
