    Help ID this cartridge

    I wish... :) I'm leaning more towards Panasonic or ADC built.

    Help ID this cartridge

    While I appreciate the time you spent on this - this is definitely not a Linn K5. The lettering on the front are the letters 'K' and 'S' (not a '5').

    Picked up a Pioneer Pl-600

    Actually, they did come with the AT3600/L. We have taken in at least three dozen PL-600's and they all had that mounted. The only exception was when the headshell wasn't original.

    Luxman PD-289 hinges?

    We have these available - brand-spanking new: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143958231265 They are slightly different than the original Luxman hinges but will work just fine.

    List the top 3 best sounding speakers you have ever owned.

    For me the number 1 would be the Carver Amazing Loudspeakers (found in a thrift store for $75!) followed by the Yamaha NS-1000M's and lastly, after many years of listening, I'm still enjoying the ADS L780/2's in use in my office.

    Why does my Thorens TD160 turntable sound worse than Spotify?

    Not sure if you did this or not, but for this to be an equal comparison you would need to be listening to a Spotify Premium account through a DAC into your system. Both (Premium and a decent DAC) make a profound difference - the single greatest improvement in sound that I've noticed through...

    Technics SLD2 turntable

    Three things you need to consider when looking for a counterweight; 1) shaft diameter size (I'll bet yours is 14mm), 2) How much weight do you need to achieve balance (more on that later) and diameter of the counterweight (in case of clearance issues with dust cover, etc.) If you can verify the...

    Technics SLD2 turntable

    As long as it tests good for arm function and sound - grab it! Dust covers for Technics turntables, for the most part, are readily available. Most dust covers that have the tabs on them (when they aren't snapped off) are interchangeable. Once critical difference is the height. Make sure to...

    How do I open this up (and who made it)?

    Based on the picture - that's the method you need to get it out of the plinth.

    Technics M3D -- What Are These Two Little Items?

    For what it's worth (that's a pun, by the way) - since you can't use those on your 1200 - they sell for pretty good money on eBay. ...just sayin'... :)

    Help with Pioneer PL-15D II

    It's not the receiver. I'd concentrate on checking the lower bearing.

    Help with Pioneer PL-15D II

    Can you repeat it over and again? That should be the first thing to check. If you can't repeat it - it ain't the receiver causing the issue (and that's what I'd bet on).

    Help with Pioneer PL-15D II

    But when you turned on the receiver the motor slowed down? (if you would see my face right now you'd see the look of confusion...)
