I can't hear any motor at all when I hit the "open" switch. If you still think it's the belt, I'll pull it apart and see if I can find a belt online. I've seen them for other players, and they seem pretty cheap. Thanks, Ed 300E On 25 February 2012 20:47, Jim Cathey wrote: > table, that is a

table, that is a front loader (slides out like a CD player). It's direct drive, but the bed will now not slide out. Not sure if it's just the switch (Sony switch always felt fragile to me), or something more mechanical. Belt. -- Jim ___ http://www.okieb

I've dusted off theturntable, etc. since we moved recently. I also want to RIP a bunch of shelac and some vinyl. I have a Sony TA-1150 amp that I bought used in the '80s. The switched and linear pots were noisy until I moved it 50 miles in the back of the van - now it works great! The turntable is

Thanks everyone for your input. Some great suggestions, which I will follow up on! I had a look on eBay and as well my local CL as some suggested. I also spent a couple of hours today checking out LP on eBay. Shopping for those old LPs that were loaned out years ago, and for some reason, never r

I am fond of Pioneer from the 70s. Maybe it is not the uber expensive stuff, but good, and not overpriced. If anyone finds a decent Pioneer 6 or 7 series receiver/amp for cheap, I would like to have another. I am talking 626 to 747 mainly, but anything that is in the format 6x6 or 7x7 is wha

I bought a Technics SLB2 new back in the seventies. Still works well. Had to change the belt once. The SLD2 is the direct drive one. There are better quality turntables available IE. Bang And Oluffson(sp), old Pioneer stuff (70's), Marantz (sp). Rick Sent from my iPhone. On Feb 25, 2012, at 3

Hey Guys, Off topic, but I know some of you guys are into this stuff. I'm getting back into vinyl over CDs, and MP3. I miss the quality and warmth of old records. Anyway, I have an old mid 80s Sony receiver, and a Sony turn table, that is a front loader (slides out like a CD player). It's dire
