That's the free thinking I love on this forum. I'm going to replace the tonearm, but continue to try and figure the story behind this one. Thanks for the idea.

Lol. Guess I'm on the hunt for a decent tonearm! My guess is this was one of the thorens offered by the factory without a stock tonearm. This project will utilize all the skills I have picked up working on stereo gear. Replacing 50 year old capacitors (phase linear ), wood cabinet refinishing...

Here are a couple more pictures. I'm really leaning towards homemade now. The ADT 6006 lifter is more visible as well.

I'll try and get some more photos. For even more interesting stuff about this turntable, check out the win labs SDT 10 cartridge.. LOL

Thanks Jim. exactly what i was thinking!

Hmm, I don't see anything like that, that matches this tonearm.. Googled Shure sdf-10. I think the copilot picked up on the Win SDF-10 logo on the front of the cartridge..

I have hunted the internet trying to find this tone arm with no luck. I'm throwing this out to the PH crowd to see if anyone can identify it? Thanks!!

I acquired a Neohippo DC10 DAC for around $50 new. It has an impressive quality case, and the sound with the stock ESS 9038Q2N Opamps is quite good. The stock opamps are socketed, so I went ahead and rolled in a set of three Texas Instruments OPA1656 DIP8 opamps for around $20. I connected the...

One of several that can be acquired. Happens to folks at the Bonneville Salt Flats track.. we come away with Sodium fever. Thanks for documenting your rebuild. I have one sitting here on the bench hoping to be a Christmas present.

Out here in the Pacific Northwest we have a number of slang terms not often heard elsewhere.. "Now we're loggin" - To make progress as planned "Pretty Scokum" - Just right, or a good solution "Middle of Humptulips" - middle of nowhere eg bumfuck idaho "I seen a horse" - I saw a horse...

I'm messing around with a PL400 that had the faceplate butchered by some one cutting slots into it. I bought some handles that cover the slots nicely. While I was at it, I applied a Cyan filter get to the meters to get a cool Marantz blue vibe. Since I was also replacing the LEDs in a PL3000...

I'm told these were installed by Red Green

The lights made an interesting pattern on the wall behind the amp... BTW, they were tapped into the power cord inside the amp... My first fear was perhaps the 6V secondary on the transformer had gone bad. But nope, just bad bulbs. Perhaps this was a test prototype for one of Joes light boards? lol

I've taken to calling these amps "Phase Gump". You never know what you will find inside one. I'm guessing the reason the previous owner didn't just change out the OEM bulbs is it must have been Christmas.

I recapped my JBL L7's a month ago, the difference is sound was quite noticeable. The caps in your speakers are around 40 years old...

Try searching ex president Donald and ex president Joe, apples to apples. Joe is the president, Donald is not. Thus Google search is not biased.

Pictures or it didn't happen! LOL

The PL1100 Equalizer I have didn't fully work. The knobs were so dirty, I could have used pliers to turn them. Some channels didn't work. I took the entire thing apart, recapped the boards, and cleaned the knobs and sliders. Hooked it back up and it sounds excellent. I also replaced the C6...
