Calling all SL-1200/1210 owners!

If the "problem" is the led`s they can be off, or they can be blue or green and red, a mixture of each for the "purple" look.

The little striplight at the back is just for cuing.

TBO they only go on at night when i`m all chilled out in the dark

If its not the lights then pray tell me, dont tell me i have my VTA wrong tho, its perfect.

.
Anyway enough of this its a technics thread.

Did you make that dust catcher thing yourself, John?

Marco.

[thrunobulaxx]

Looking good, dude. It's a veritable neon wonderland

Is that a little 'dust-picker-upper' in the background - did you make it yourself?

Marco.

Its a dust bug and the best i have ever owned, i actually use it, it doesn`t "play" the vinyl like some but i do have to adjust speed slightly if i do lower it.
Its a "Rexon" made in france, hard to find and expensive if you do find one, Stan Beresford scored two and gave one to me for a job i did.

the head swops around for anti static or not, it has a brush and pad, has gimballed bearings and a proper bearing in its base for the horizontal plane, i did change the C/W to brass to match the top of my collet clamp and Arm C/W tho, it was a black powder coated steel one originally.

All the others i tried including a transcriptors, Watts etc were gone within a week, but this ones been on for 3 months and will prolly be staying.

He also got me this AT 6006a safety raiser, rare as hens teeth now, it was brand new in its box sealed, they make around £60 on ebay if you ever see one.

Its a godsend on a manual deck and works perfectly if set up correctly.

What?

You no likey 'disco' platters?

Marco.

Not at all Marco & John... The platter looks fantastic!

I've just always been of the opinion though, that they work much better with a record on them!

I see in later piccy's that the 'problem' has been rectified!

Nice one, John. Have you tried wiring it up and sticking a cartridge on it?

Marco.

[thrunobulaxx]

It would prolly work better than some of the wood diy arm i have seen on foums

I could put that decased coral MC-81 (berylium cantilever and shibata tip) in my avatar on it.
It was 30yrs old and unused but its suspension had perished, so i took a hacksaw to it to get at the guts and heath robinson style repacked its suspension with that foam you use for stylus cleaning, it sounds better than a eroica lx and an ortofon mc15 super 11.
