OU812rh Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Nice. Is that a SME309 arm? What other mods have you done to the table? Thank for all the positive feedback guys! Yes it is a SME 309 arm and a Micro Benz Ref 3 pick up. I have gone for the full Orbe upgrade and also changed to the HR PSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like their pricing, very reasonable 5k for the walker proscenium black diamond. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny130y Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Guys, anyone using Gyropower QC PSU for the AC motor and familiar with it? Can help to explain what are the purpose of 4 trimmers R41, R39, R42 & R40? There are 4 outputs J2, J3, J4, & J1. Think J4 is ground and J1 is to measure voltage output for 33.3rpm, how about others?

Steve.Y Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Hi Sunny130y，firstly what is wrong with your QC power? I can explain the trim pot adjustment to you via phone. It's complicated to explain in words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny130y Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks Steven for advice and I adjusted R41 & R39 for same voltage output and measured J4 & J1 but needed around 22.3V to achieve close to 33.3rpm. Looks like something is wrong since 19v should be sufficient. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try dusting entire belt with talcum powder first, before order a new one. In our kind of weather, belts last 4-5 years at the most. If your belt is flat type, and you do not mind trying 3rd party, Origin Live belt can be made to order. I find it good, reasonably priced and came within 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny130y Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Actually it's a new belt. Wah...analogue is so challenging. So many variables compared to digital which I'm more familiar with. Lots to learn and try. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI, Origin Live asked me to do talcum powder before install their new belt on my SME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chowbotak Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Refilling the spindle bearing with Singer oil adds fluidity and flow to the music. A great tweak! Thanks to the master Steve Y! [emoji14] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Teh Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Yep. I use synthetic motor oil too. Singer is a bit too thin for my liking. I think Rega recommends a specific gearbox oil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
