    Ariston rd-40 board recap

    My old Ariston RD-40 (DC motor version) can’t keep the speed up to 33rpm. Maximum it can do 27 rpm on that switch. 45 seems to play fine (but it is another switch - potentiometer). Both potentiometers were changed a few years ago, so it is not a problem. I bought new belt, and it didn’t help. So...

    Ariston Audio RD11s : electrical hum when off

    I picked up this rather nice RD11s recently with a Mayware arm and Audio Technica at13ea cartridge. I am lovingly restoring it, although it came in decent condition overall and just needs a bit of TLC and to set up the arm (which is a bit of work). It's all going well, but last night I powered...

    Ariston Audio Speakers (Concrete lined)

    I believe these are from late 70's / early 80,s. Made in Scotland. I think Linn grew out of the ashes of Ariston.

I can get a Technics SL J3 for 50 £ or a Pioneer PL L800 for 200£ . Both are tangential and look smooth/flat to place...

    Ariston Acoustics Image problem

    I offered to repair the mid/bass driver in a friend's Ariston Acoustics Image speaker. She noticed a lot of distortion coming from one speaker and, upon removing the grill it looks like the cone took a hit that ripped the rubber surround. My friend blames her rowdy nieces for the damage but good...

    Future upgrades to my Ariston RD110 SL turntable

    Ok, so I'm likely getting my Ariston RD110 SL back soon with a Fidelity Research FR-24 Mk2 tonearm fitted after a full professional set up and service. I'm very much looking forward to hearing it for the first time. While I did know that many parts in this table were interchangeable with a...

    Picking up an Ariston RD110 SL, suggested tonearms

    Hey guys, I'm picking up an Arison RD110 SL without tonearm tomorrow night and wanted to get some advice on which (inexpensive) tonearm would work well on it for using a Grado Reference Platinum 1 and Denon DL103 cartridges. From what little I've been able to find on Ariston turntables many...

    Ariston rd-50 on local CL

    One available locally for $175. Enigma tone-arm made by Jelco, Pickering cart. I don't know much about these tt's but have a generally positive impression and the arm seems legit. Anyone have any info? Does that seem like a good deal?
