    Rek-o-kut B12 cartridge recommendations

    I just recently acquired a Rek-o-Kut Rondine B12. I am going to be restoring it (it’s in great shape but hasn’t been used in years so it will need all the standard maintenance.) It has the original tonearm, model S120. My questions is the cartridge. What cartridge under $500 does everyone...

    Rek-O-Kut Micropoise tonearm restoration

    I have a nice Rek-O-Kut S-34H that works great. The only thing is the chrome on the tonearm flaked off. I was thinking of sanding it and breaking loose any of the oxidization, then painting it with either a chrome or silver metallic spray paint. I am just wondering if anyone has done something...

    Rek-o-Kut Rondine Deluxe - what now

    I just bought a Rek-o-Kut Rondine Deluxe for what I think was a great deal, but what do I do now! It spins up and has no apparent major damage. The rca cables are pretty frightening so I imagine they will need to be replaced. If there's a good reference thread for a general cleaning that would...

    Rek-O-Kut N-33H - What's Going on Here?

    I have an opportunity to pick up this dusty TT, but as a relative newbie, some of it is confounding me. First, the deck color. full Just about every N-33H I've ever seen was "two-tone" - with the metal belt cover painted a silvery gray. This one is black-on-black. The paint looks original, but...

    Rek-O-Kut Rondine 2 restoration thread (finally)

    A while back I started a thread about restoring my uncommon 1960’s era Rek-O-Kut Rondine 2 belt drive turntable. Well, I fell off the map and the original thread kind of spiraled out of control, so if at first you don’t succeed, try try again. There she is. A little dirty but was neatly tucked...

    Just acquired need advice: ROK Rondine Deluxe, ESL/Ortofon S1/2000? arm

    Hey all - I just made a killer Goodwill score - acquired a Rek-O-Kut Rondine Deluxe, with what (after a bunch of google image search sleuthing) appears to be an ESL/(Ortofon?) S1000 or S2000 arm. No measurement markings on the side wheels, but has the spring thing hanging off the back. I've...

    Vintage Turntables (parts or project) on Chicago CL

    Saw this posted, thought maybe an intrepid and skillful may want to tackle one or more of these as a project. The add lists two Empires, and Rek-o-kut and a Weathers. Both of the Empires appear to be the elusive 498 model. As always, no affiliation. Listing here...

There is very little information on these, so I would like to start a thread that combines whatever it is you might know about these tables. When they were made, how they performed, where you first listened to one, How...
