| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Perhaps this is what Halcro is referring to: https://patents.google.com/patent/US4888564A/en?q=phase&q=lock+loop&oq=phase+lock+loop. From a brief glance, it looks like what is described in the tt101's service manual. Perhaps it is related ... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? SO WHAT CAN I DO? Is that require some sort fo special knowlegde or experience to fix it locally with some tech?IMO, you probably don't require a man of knowledge.

| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Same answer as halcro. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? try this Lew: flip the table upside down and hold it. You'll feel the motor drop down; flip it right side up. Let it settle and then run it to see if the noise persists. That has worked for me before.That screw we are referring to is actually a h... | |
| Review: Quad 57 Or, the audio friend may buy himself (again) the rm10 along with these speakers and hear for himself what all the fuss is about. Nice review, Ct0517. Always learning from you. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lewm,I've messed with that screw more than I'd care to admit. It has the effect of adjusting platter height. Too low and the platter will rub against the escutcheon and make noise. Even with the platter off, if that screw is not within some accept... | |

| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? a cursory search on completed yahoo jp auctions shows that the last two yamaha 2000x went for US $5k each. That's more than most auctions for sp 10 mk3's. So, Henry is correct....something's afoot, we know not what. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? hi George:http://www.musicdirect.com/p-322395-ifi-ipower-outboard-supply.aspx...but they ship to US addresses only.Ah, found some on the bay: http://tinyurl.com/za9v9ze. Ships from the UK though. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lewm: The mat to get for the tt 101 is the victor pigskin shown here: http://www.topclassaudio.com/web/eng/used_product_details.jsp?gid=7901I own that combo but don't really care for the glass. Just put the skin suede side up and as far as mats go... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? The Stereophile 'push' is working: it's out of stock everywhere I've looked. fyi: it's US$50 | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Good for you Lewm. I hope it was all worth the trouble. You own some other very nice DD tables and I for one look forward to reading how the tt 101 compares. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? chakster:I use acupwr for my japanesse vintage gear: http://acupwr.com/pages/voltage-transformers-convertersMade in the usa, but likely just as good as Lewm's chinese step downs. :). It doesn't vibrate and doesn't heat up and neither does the gear... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? I haven't had a chance really to play around with my tt 801, but here are some observations.1. The tt 801 DOES have the stepped pitch control like the tt 101. The control panel and speed indication is different though. Instead of showing the actua... |
