The wall wart (ac adaptor) looks like this from follow URL:I just got a TD 320 with no wall wart. I have been unable to find a stick replacement on the internet. I was wondering if anyone knows the specs on this item. AC or DC, Voltage, amperage?
Thanks
I have owned a Thorens TD-321 since I bought it new in 1984. The 321 is the version without a tonearm. I also have a TD-320 MK3 for the past 5 years. They use a 16vac wall wart. I upgraded to a GBC rated at 1.25A instead of the original 100mA version with no problems. I bought them at American Science and Surplus in Geneva, IL. They cost $4.50 each, they have 1A and 1.25A versions.

It sounds like the resistor issue is caused by to high of voltage for the wall wart.
