Considering selling my restored Garrard 301

It is not clear how the motor controller works and whether it is compatible with 60 hz AC.  If all that it does is clean up the power, whether it is 60 hz or 50 hz, it may not matter what kind of power is fed into the unit.  If it regenerates the AC power, it might matter what is fed to the unit.  But, in any case, a properly designed power feed that cleans up the wave form, or somehow reduces cogging (an bigger issue with AC motors than DC motors would be welcome).

This is the reason belt and direct drives stole the entire market dumping these old ID drive tables, which were in the beginning very inexpensive until audiophile mythology took over. 

No need to tear you into pieces. When a fool stands up at a party and starts saying idiotic things, polite people just walk away. 

Btw, your syntax is as faulty as your point of view. Maybe worse. 

@mijostyn And if noise were the overriding consideration why do you opine again and again in this forum rather than roaming over to the digital forum? Why not throw away your Sota and just stream from one of these https://www.bluesound.com/products/node/?utm_term=&utm_campaign=Node+Promo+Campaign+Nov1-Jan1+(CAN)&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=3462809719&hsa_cam=20660958388&hsa_grp=&hsa_ad=&hsa_src=x&hsa_tgt=&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsqaSvsz5ggMVamNHAR2XKACaEAAYAyAAEgLsd_D_BwE

Larry, I am pretty sure the LDA is a power regenerator that puts out variable voltage at 50Hz, referenced to a quartz oscillator to keep the frequency perfectly stable. The platter speed of the induction type motor can then be controlled by varying the voltage output. It therefore would run off our 120V/60Hz mains, just like any other amplifier, which is what it essentially is, an amplifier that makes only one frequency. This has been done before, although I do not know if others were referenced to a quartz crystal oscillator.  So it doesn't just "clean up" the power, although I am sure it does do that in passing.

I read that if using the LDA unit, you must use the 240volt motor connetion and remove the eddy brake disk.
