hi all,
i realy hope that mike accepts that my questions are real and genuine concerns on this, i understand fully and agree with the reasons for removing the power supply from under the deck ie; eddy currents produced from wound components like transformers are not good to have near pick ups etc, also i agree that supplying the best power supply posible for the motor and ancilaries to take full advantage of is an absolute must, but when it comes to altering the balance of the main 2 components that are a huge part of why this turntable performs as it does well...
anyway, i look forward to the comments on this.
A...
I don't think anybody would take it the wrong way Anthony, its an important question, IMHO having some good details would put the minds at rest for all those interested in going for this particular upgrade

The original servo regulator, according to the Timestep site, is rather "rough" in the way it responds to slight changes in loading. From the evidence presented there, the improved regulator smooths the waveform no end.
I've mentioned before that this motor unit has been used to power incredibly heavy cutting-lathe platters with no problems at all as I understand. If Mr Cawley doesn't wish to post here, maybe Anthony could get hold of one and do some measurements?
Cozy chat... Cheeky bugger!
Dave will no doubt produce his findings in his copy on his web site when he has finished his extensive testing, like any manufacturer he isn't oblidged to do anything more than that before he is ready... Peoples friendships here have given them the advantage to have the likes of mike to come on here and discus his ideas and concepts as he wishes... If dave doesn't wish to that it is his perogative.
My experience of dave has always been he is much more open when talking on the phone, if anyone want o know more, from the horses mouth as it were, just ring the guy... I'm sure he will be as forthcomeing as he has been with me..
Why would my chats with dave be any more "cozy" than anyone elses?
Lol.... Hamish, I wasn't having a dig at you! :)
...Although you seemed to be acting like his 'official spokesperson'.
All I'm wondering is why, when Dave once had no problem whatsoever waxing lyrical here about all things Techy, he's now all of a sudden developed 'Laryngitis' - particularly when things have become interesting in terms of the new platter and PSU! :confused: :scratch:
He's supposed to be a registered trade member here, someone who willingly provides information about his products when members/customers request it (witness for example how Paul Hynes, Stan Beresford, Anthony TD and Mike New respond to queries here about their products), but at the moment he's not behaving like we expect of an AOS trade member - and I'm finding that more than a little disappointing.
Message to Dave: There was no point in un-banning you after our little dispute, which as far as I'm aware we've resolved (no?), if you're not going to bother contributing anymore................ :(

Hi Marco
Can i suggest giving Dave just a wee bit more time ' i think he will want to test , test and test again before he will be happy with it , remember how long it took for the psu to develop .
Hi Chris,
I've got no problem with that whatsoever, and indeed I understand and appreciate what you're saying. But that's another matter altogether.
Dave's been on-line today and reading this thread (I know from the stats), obviously noticing the questions that were being asked, and yet hasn't had the courtesy to respond.......
I'm sorry, but I consider that rather rude. The very least he could've done was offered a comment on what Anthony asked Mike, as he's ideally positioned to respond. I think we deserve some feedback on the results of his experiments so far, don't you?
Dave's either a trade member in the full sense of what we expect here on AOS, or there's not much point in him being here at all! We don't facilitate the presence of 'silent' trade members who prefer to hide. Trade members here are expected to be proactive in our community, offering advice and assistance where required.
At the moment I don't see too many new platters being sold until we get the answers to our concerns we're looking for, so it'll ultimately be his (and Mike's) loss.............
Anyway, I shall say no more on the subject of Dave for now.
Marco.
