Transcriptor Hydraulic Reference Turntable by David Gammon 😎😍
Просмотров 20821 день назад
What an amazing piece of Art by an engineer named David Gammon. Fitted with the stunning tonearm SME 3009 and the cartridge Shure V15 mkIII special tracking stylus What a joy it was refurbishing this beauty and bringing it back to life after decades in the previous owner's loft. Definitely a keeper for me 😁
Acoustic Research AR77XB with ADC headshell

Recently serviced this turntable has excellent performance. less it's definitely more the simplicity of this turntable, the tonearm, the 3 points suspension. love it Replaced the original headshell and socket with a fixed ADC headshell because of the dodgy original headshell/socket definitely a weak point in this turntable.

A great turntable "the poor man's Linn" they say. I don't know but she sings really well. probably even better with a SME tonearm very accurate speed, very quiet motor very pleased with these one 😎

Got this one a few years ago without the tonearm. The plinth is very similar to the one from the Rega Planar series. I'm not a fan of thin plinths so decided to make this custom oak plinth. the original one was cut to fit inside and this way I could use the original dust cover although I decided not to use it and instead I got a Michell unicover.

Просмотров 2565 месяцев назад
A turntable quite rare here in the UK is fully automatic the last one made by Pioneer in the 80's (if I'm not wrong). Technically it seems to share a lot of components with the PL-707 which was introduced in 1982. In 1985 the PL-3F was positioned as PL-707's successor. It was sold until 1989. The specs are also quite similar. It was Pioneer's TOTL during that 4-year period. I think the reason f...

    I used a RP-855 for nearly 20 years before it's second motor failed about 8 years ago. A decent job you've done with the veneer...looks nicer than the original black ash. I upgraded the supplied AT110E cartridge to an AT440ML, which made a worthwhile improvement to SQ. Later I replaced the stock arm with a Rega RB300 which also lifted the table's sonics adding a slightly brighter more detailed sound. I prefered it to my Rega P3 2000 that I'd nicked the RB300 off. I loved that table and was sad to see it go.
