Hi.
Yes. 1/2 A seems like it must be it but it means the motor is only 13% efficient if that is true. I didn't expect that.
The tonearm needs to be rewired and needs a set screw that is missing. I will also need to find a way to shim the tonearm a bit if I want to keep it in this plinth as it is a bit low now.
Do you think a stereo cartridge would work well with the tonearm? I think it might be model number 103-S-L. What kind of cartridge is a good match for this kind of tonearm?
I believe it may be an oil cap in there now that looks as though it's in good shape.
My main motivation for looking at power regenerators is to make sure power quality is good but I'd probably want to have a listen if a controller I'm using had a suitable 2 phase mode of operation.
