Ariston Tunrtable

I have bought a Ariston RD-11E turntable recently in a pawn shop and was wondering if any of our fellows audiophile have had any experience with this turntable ( Does it sound great, what type of cartridge do you use with this table) I was also looking for the schematics because I am planing to rebuild the power supply with better parts.

Thanks

I had an RD11S, I don't remember the difference bewteen the S and the E but mine sounded very good. I was using a SME III with a nude mounted EMT XSD15 moving coil, killer combo for the time(1978-83)! Mine did need to have the motor lubricated from time to time to keep it working correctly.

How to get power to my RD11 ?
I have an Ariston RD11, which I haven't used in 10 years. The power supply was via a two pin flat plug inserted into the back of my old Rotel amp - now in the tip. My new amp doesn't have a socket. I'm ready to re-explore my vinyl collection, so how do I get power to my deck?
Can anybody help ?

I once owned an Ariston RD90 with an SME IV tonearm and a Carnegie (I forget the model) cartridge. Awesome combination!

in the tip? is that like "in the lue"? I am not sure how to go about trying to answer this question but would be glad to help if you can give me more info. Where the hell are you anyway? Your table is set up for what voltage?
