45 adapters


I recently had the opportunity to acquire cheap a number of the "old style" 45's with the BIG hole! Some of these are DJ promo copies that have never been played. They sound pretty darn good on my 'Not. I am using a few of the old plastic inserts that I had lying around to fit my spindle. Can anyone recommend a 45 adapter that would be better to use that the plastic inserts without going totally nuts? Or, is this about as good as it gets?

David, glad to know it worked out. I think I need to get one myself! I'm currently using a Thorens 125/II--with the clever built-in adapter--so it's unnecessary, but am planning to upgrade the 'table soon.

Alan - I looked too, and the seller (Larry) is not offering any on E-Bay at the present time. The seller's E-Bay name is gl-er and may list more. As it happens, though, I now see that the same seller with a different handle also has them listed right here on Audiogon at the following link:

4yanx......could you kindly list a link to the e-bay seller? I couldn't find him with the search function. Thanks!
Joshua - I took a chance and bought one from the person you mention. A very nice product. Heavy, nicely machined. It works great. Highly recommended.
I also just saw someone on eBay (seller ID = "gl-er") listing hand-machined brass 45 adapters. They looked pretty nice. (I have no affiliation with this person, just happened across the listing the other day and considered getting one myself.)

4yanx, I purchased a beautiful spun aluminum one piece adapter that is really nice. See link below:

Hope this works for you, Ed.
