Default Re: Crystal Cartridge refurb.

Hi. I have purchased a high output cartridge from the company mentioned.
At the moment i'm using a medium output cartridge. It plays 45s and 78s Ok but LPs not so well. This Dansette Challenge 106 plays well. The Autochanger
functions well and all the speeds are OK.the new cartridge should give better results. This player cost £15 from a charity shop. Iv'e had to make a few repairs to damage caused by me in clumsy dismantling, New switch volume Pot. and replacement switches. But the cost is not to bad when you look at some of the prices being asked for restored items. They are going for silly money.I only play mono records on this machine, mostly 45s from charity shops.And up to yet the ones iv'e purchased play well.
Keep them records spinning.
Diggap.
