Hello, all.

Just to let you know that I've managed to get the SL-15 service manual scanned and up on the web (finally!)

The SL15 page can be found at:

http://uk.geocities.com/lineartechnicssl15/

I've had the service manuals for the Technics SL-7 and SL-10 up for some time now. The SL7 is at:

http://uk.geocities.com/lineartechnics/

The SL10 is at:

http://uk.geocities.com/lineartechnicssl10/index.html

I also have some pages on the Trio Kenwood L-07D, including the service manual. The LO7D information is located at:

Cheers, Jon.
 
Technics T4Ps

Hello, SY

I'm still kicking myself for passing up an EPC-100 on eBay a year or two ago. After all, I had three 205s and a 202, so why would I have needed another cart..? Stupid, stupid, stupid. Oh well, live and learn.

Of course, if you do decide to part with your EPC-100, I would be happy to give it a new home. The same goes for anyone reading this who might happen to have a surplus Technics T4P from the upper echelons of their cartridge range, alive or dead.

Cheers, Jon.

Nice SL-7...!

My own has some scratches, but plays well!
Too bad the previous owner broke the cart, maybe it can be fixed?

Do you have any experience with MC carts for T4P mount? Or something better than Ortofon OMP (20) or AT316 ?

I have seen Pickering making some expensive T4P carts...

Nice pic!

Hello, EFX.

Is it OK if I put the picture of your SL-10 and SL-15 on my web site? I am working on my web site now, and hope to put the changes on the web in about a week.

I have a black SL-15 too, and I think they look great.

I have seen the Pickering T4P cartridges, but when I asked Pickering for a frequency response graph, they said they didn't have any. The cartridges are too expensive for me to want to buy one without seeing some measurements.

Cheers, Jon.
 
Hello triophile,

No problem to use my pic.s on your website I send you a mail
if you need more.
I also do have black records haha.


Maybe we can find out if the stylus and needle prices are
cheaper in GB-NL-or Norway or Germany tru this owners site

or the best adresses where to buy anyway.
greetings efx:cool:

Haven't got the faintest idea what they did with it. Are thinking of going into production again ;) ?

You could get it retipped, I suppose, by someone like Expert Stylus.

"There's a pony in there somewhere." Er, unless you mean cash, I'm not sure what you're talking about here.

Cheers, Jon.
A family had twin boys whose only resemblance
to each other was their looks. If one felt it
was too hot, the other thought it was too cold.
If one said the TV was too loud, the other claimed
the volume needed to be turned up. Opposite in
every way, one was an eternal optimist, the other
a doom & gloom pessimist.

Just to see what would happen, on the twins'
birthday their father loaded the pessimist's
room with every imaginable toy and game. The
optimist's room he loaded with horse manure.

That night the father passed by the pessimist's
room and found him sitting amid his new gifts
crying bitterly.

"Why are you crying?" the father asked.

"Because my friends will be jealous, I'll have
to read all these instructions before I can do
anything with this stuff, I'll constantly need
batteries, and my toys will eventually get broken,"
answered the pessimist twin.

Passing the optimist twin's room, the father
found him dancing for joy in the pile of manure.
"What are you so happy about?" he asked.

To which his optimist twin replied, "There's
got to be a pony in here somewhere!"

The cartridges that this series of turntables came with were just fantastic. If only there were still styli available... I still have my old EPC100C-Mk4; I spent many days combing Akihabara for a replacement stylus, but no luck.

Unfortunately there is no original replacement stylus available. I know that the Technics distributer in Holland still has a brand new EPC-100C MK4 . It's for sale for €699 (approx. $935), which is quite a huge amount of money. Tonar, a stylus specialist, can deliver a replacement on demand for about $650.

I have one in my improved Thorens TD166Mk2 and I' sure it will stay there :D
 
Technics SL-7

Hello ,I have recently purchased a Technics SL-7 ,
I have just put a new cartridge and stylus I paid $25 (why are some so costly ?? )for it and it sounds fine , it is missing the retaining screws , it works ok up to a point .
There seems to be an intermittant fault whereby the arm will correctly move to the begining of a record , start to play then for no reason return to its rest position and the deck will stop ,
this happens on both 7 and 12" records and at varying places on the record , also when you depress the play button and the deck begins to spin but the arm does not always move to the start of the record its like the arm mechanism is on a secondary take up which doesnt always activate.
So , my question is , is there a remedy \ adjustment ?
I like the styling and size of this deck and would very much like to keep it but not at any cost . Any help would be gratefully recieved .
( as an aside I also own a " the oak " turntable and I would like to get any information on it )
Many thanks .

hello,

I am new here, and I am happy to see that I am not alone with my problem.
I am the owner of a SL-10 and I am desperately in search of a new styli, the magnificent "EPS-310-MC" :xeye:

If anyone should have a clue...

Thx.


PS. The sax player on the LP's cover is the fabulous Benny Golson

HI
I also own a SL10.
I'm using Grado Prestige Gold now, seem to be a good choice.

I'm try to locate an EPC310 with no result.

cheers
