Will this belt fit a Technics SL-B2 turntable? Hello, will this work with a technics sl-b35? Go on line and look up the manual to find belt size. Hi, I'm new to this forum and so far it's been a fun and informative read. I have a question for knowledgeable TT people. I'm considering reviving my old vinal listening hobby and play my wife's old albums without having to spend too much money on equipment. I currently have a Sonic Frontiers valve CD player, pre-amp and amp and am getting a vintage Sansui tuner. On my local craigslist there are 3 TT's for $50 each. All else being equal (I know it never is), which would be the best table between Technics SL- B35, Technics SL - B200 and a Sony PS - LX300H. I am going to be able to audition them all on my system for a subjective compare, and I know a lot depends on condition, cartridge, stylus etc. But 'all else being equal', which would be the best table? Also how do you tell a conical from an eliptical stylus? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Yes, I second what Louie said. None of them. First of all, when sources talk about belt drives, they are referring to high quality models, e.g. Thorens, that have substantial build and a heavy platter. Japanese mfrs like Technics, Sony, Pioneer had acceptable s-arm belt models, but their direct drives were always top of their lineup and had the best specs (quietest and most accurate speed), especially the quartz models. By the time they got to the lightweight straight arms in the 80s, the direct drives were the only ones worth considering. So for Technics, you should look for a 'D' or 'Q' in the model number. OK, beginning to understand Thanks for your affirmation of Louie's advice, Hackaplan. I have found another Technics TT on craigslist for the same price ($50.00) that would seem to fit the bill better. It's an SL-D2. The drive to pick it up is way longer, but I'd rather do that than end up with regrets. As a bonus, the seller is throwing in a Technics M7 tape deck, so it sounds even better. I have a bunch of 60-70's cassettes somewhere. Don't know the condition of either machine yet though. Kuch kuch hota hai song pkmp3. The TT has no cartridge, so any advice on what would be a good match in this department, or anything else to watch for when I see the TT will be very wellcome. I have an old Audio Technics cartridge in sort of OK? Pdf to word converter online free. Download PDF '.Richard L. Wheeden, Antoni Zygmund.' For free at This Site.

Meggy - I took your suggestion and the only interesting hit was a Technics SL-1200MK2. Even up to 50 miles. My research says this is far higher quality than the other one, but the $4.95 bid with only 1day 8hrs. Left had me wondering. Seems the table has a big problem - no output. The seller says the motor turns on and all the knobs and dials turn smoothly, just minor scratches and a little dust. Trouble is I don't know the first thing about TT repair, so it might end up more expensive than a working one. Thanks for the good suggestion though. I live in the Denver area, so there might be a reasonable technician in the area, but it seems like something of a gamble on my current budget. OK, I agree with the earlier posters - the Sony is an OK re-entry table if in good shape. Next would be the SL-D2 based solely on price and availability. The eBay SL1200 sound suspicious, but if you can get it cheap enough - it is an outstanding table when up and running right. As a matter of fact, if the fix only costs a moderate amount, you can run that 1200 the rest of your life. Tons of options and upgrade, etc. So get something to get started and if a project comes along that will move you onto the higher rungs, you may consider that too. Click to expand.Agreed. I would definitely buy the Technics IF THEY WERE DIRECT DRIVE. I currently own two older Technics direct drive tables with a P-mount arm. The SL-DD2 and the SL-QD35 Both work flawlessly and have been very well cared for and very gently used. As for esthetics, they both look like I just got them yesterday. I still very much enjoy both and are rarely used. I may take a pic or two of these two and post them here over the weekend. Additionally, the thing about direct drive motors transmitting unwanted sounds or vibrations to the cartridge is a myth. The way a direct drive table keeps those things away has to do with motor speed. With belt drive tables, the motor spins at several hundred rpm in order to turn the platter at either 33 or 45 rpm. The belt acts as sort of a buffer between the motor pulley and the platter, keeping unwanted motor vibrations and extraneous noise away from the platter. On the other hand, a direct drive table's motor turns at either 33 or 45 rpm.much slower than a belt drive motor. And since the motor turns so slowly, that is how unwanted vibration and extraneous noises are kept away, even though the platter of a direct drive table sits directly on top of the turntable motor! Anyway, of the three you have listed, your best bet is probably the Sony.
