Luxman turntable tuneup & repair

[bmoman]

Looking for a capable, reliable repair shop to tuneup my Luxman PD-121 turntable. Needs strobe lamp replaced, new TT platter pad, tonearm adjustment and possibly new cartridge. I live in suburbs north of DC; looking for shop/repairman in Baltimore, DC, or corridor. Thank you for any help.

Afraid the strobe lamp is one of those unobtainable items now..bummer I know. However, there is a mod on this site to give you back the light using UV led's.

But your post brought out needed info to anyone who searches and trips over this thread. All good as I see it.

I hope so man! I have a PD-121 in excellent shape and the original strobe is still working. I downloaded the fix off of AK and will do it when my goes out. I have re-capped it so maybe it'll last a good while longer but I know it will someday as I know the lamps have a limited life span.

Fwiw a dead pd121 strobe can be a symptom of a bad cap not a bad light. A new cap fixed mine.
