The schematic's there (scroll down) - if you think the design is 'flawed' feel free to educate me. I've got people queuing up to
see pix of this amp and wanting to hear my opinion of it. If it's ****e I'll damn soon say so - I'm not 'pluging' anything....



How much is that gonna set you back, Keith? INCLUDING delivery, please.


I have much to report regarding my hi-fi recently, though probably not
much of actual interest to many here.

I have been busy installing, tweaking, listening, and enjoying.

Some things are good.

Some are not. My Pink Triangle PT TOO turntable motor is well on the
way out. It squeaks and squeals like a banshee. No, it's not the platter
bearing. It is the motor. It is not a happy motor.

Anyone know where to get a replacement? It's an AC synchronous motor.
Beyond that, I don't know what it is. I know Pink Triangle are no more,
but they must have bought in their motors from a well-known manufacturer
who's still around? Right? (Please say "Yes."!)

I might give a fuller report of my activity later, if I can be bothered
typing it all out!

For PT I've been in touch with Arthur wassisname (PT founder) - very
helpful. This site:

should take you to an email address - let me know if it gets you
nowhere and I'll email you the address i've been using. Or you can try
Origin Live - v.expensive motors IMO.
