Yes, sugden IA4 is a good match with DC Tannoy. Have heard older HPDs with Accuphase and it sounded a bit over damped (ie lots of control at the expense of a bit of verve) .
I would be tempted to...

I had the one mentioned in above posts but had problems with the batteries flattening and faint display.

This unit is better with a regular AAA battery...

Hi Chris,
The 270c is an extremely good well balanced MM cart being dynamic, with a midrange warmth. Only in the treble does it betray its relatively humble origins. Nagoaka provided the original...

I have heard a few old school klipsch models and they have never sou ded harsh. Rather they have sounded quite warm but dynamic.
Definitely an acquired taste but worth a listen as they are very...

Handy these, but unfortunately no longer made.
The looking plugs make a better mechanical connection than the Rothwell.

I have had both and moved on the jr149s. However the early 15ohm (transformer xover) Rogers 3/5A are deffo staying!

Looks nice, and perfect spec for an audio technica oc9 or art 9

I always found Robert very helpful, so may be worth giving him a call on Phone** +49 (4706) 4126 234

Tim is careful with his carts, I have one of his older ATs currently on my main deck.

As Lawrence says, these make good transports. And its great having actual buttons to control the features in addition to the remote.

Hi baz,
The tenuto is used instead of a mat and sits on top of the original platter. I have one too and find it invaluable in lifting the performance a Garrard 401.

Awesome system, Chris :stalks:

I owned a pair with HPD385 for a number of years. They produce an enormous amount of bass in both depth and quantity so a big room to avoid room interaction is recommended.

I loved the huge full...

The answer is obvious Graeme, another Rega Apheta!!

Hi jac, a vintage denon ha500 head amp is a good match with the art 9.

Great result Alan, out of interest, how do you find the classic 100 compared to the sp100r2?
I too think the Classic 100 are fantastic. Huge scale, bass you feel and they really boogie along. One...

Its a pretty straightforward circuit that has been around for 50 years so I suspect the fix to the Sugden will be fairly straightforward. It would really be worth finding a reputable repairer who...

Having owned one for many years, I agree a 401 project will cost a lot more than the budget. The end result is worthwhile but a sorted Garrard is not a trivial undertaking.
The big choice will be...

A real alternative sound ro the above is the JBL L82 at around €2K.

This is a smaller version of the L100 Classic so should produce a dynamic room filling sound and should work well with a solid...

Oyaide BR-12 looks cool on the technics and works well. I use one on a 1510.

Hi,

Does anyone have an*Ortofon*OM Super body they would like to sell?

many thanks

Nice speakers, which look very similar to a Rogers Export Monitor which used a similar transformer crossover.
But instead of the pressed steel Dalesford driver, these cast alloy bass drivers look...

Oops I am after an 1/2 " mount OM super body not an OMP which is the T4P version. Sorry for confusion.

Hi,

Does anyone have an Ortofon OM Super body they would like to sell?

For non DIYs, I'd be getting this along to Henry Durant, Toprepairman in leatherhead. He has fixed up big hi-end pioneer and yamaha separates for me and always does a great job
