Teac P10 Transport, what laser?

georgehifi · 20th April 2007, 09:04 PM

Can someone tell me what laser the Teac P10 uses, I've searched everywhere with no luck.
Also if you know what are the differences between the P10 and the P700, I know the P700 has the nice but expensive Kss151A laser but that the only thing I know.
Do they us the same transport mech?
As they go for around the same price s/h and I have the option of maybe getting one or the other .

Cheers George

Searched as in looked everywhere at the transport/laser module and saw no label with part number?

I'm going on rather distant memory, but it seems to me that it was a KSS213C. Or some version of KSS213.

The laser used in the P10 is definately a Sony KSS-151A.
I put one in the one that I have.
Not the easiest job in the world I may add.

Hi Eric,

Would you tell us a secret : where & when did you purchase that
hard-to-find laser KSS-151A ? Also, the price you paid for?
Excuse me for my burning curiosity & eagerness to learn more from you.

Hi Kingcong
I purchased my laser from up in your area.
the website is www.alltronic.com.sg
The part number you need to enter is 884806401.
I can,t remember the price I'm afraid but I remember being nicely
surprised.
I think it is also vailable from
www.chsinteractive.co.uk but not the original.It's also more expensive from there.
Singapore is your best bet.
I'm interested to hear how you get on.
regards

I found this laser at a German firm:

Hi all,
The price at Justone is more expensive than Singapore I think.
Worth checking now.

The P10 I have has been "got at" by one of it's owners.
The main PCB is a write-off. two of the big flatpacks have been
changed by someone without the proper de-soldering gear and
many of the little tracks are now non-existant.
It's mechanically fine.
Does anyone know of one not working with a good main PCB.
that the owner may like to sell.
I got it cheap of course and would like to get it going as it's a great transport.

Oshifis, that German site is a real treasure trove, if they actually have everything they show in stock, it should be saved by everybody!
A silly off-topic question: for some reason I equate laser with Diamand (carts.) Is there any reason to imagine dif. lasers have better sound? like glass lens vs. plastic? reading better?
