Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?

I have just acquired a 32 year old JVC/Victor TT-101 DD turntable after having its lesser brother, the TT-81 for the last year.
TT-101
This is one of the great DD designs made at a time when the giant Japanese electronics companies like Technics, Denon, JVC/Victor and Pioneer could pour millions of dollars into 'flagship' models to 'enhance' their lower range models which often sold in the millions.
Because of their complexity however.......if they malfunction.....parts are 'unobtanium'....and they often cannot be repaired.

Tim, (Pryso)

Once you have your table recapped you can bring it out here and I can do the above adjustment for you.

Good Listening

Acman, It seems JP has deferred to me.  I am still interested in your Mat2. Please do contact me, as I cannot figure out how to PM you.
Thanks.

Peter, that's very good of you.  JT did my initial calibrations but with him gone I don't know anyone now with the test gear to do it.  I suspected it would be worthwhile after the cap changes.  It will be a couple of months but I'll be in touch.

Nor can I, is it even possible on this forum?

Guys, its pretty simple, from the main Audiogon page, not the forum page we are on now, go to the Explore tab under which theres a sub tab labeled member look up, enter the moniker you want to look up and hit search, then once the member is found click on the moniker to the left of the 2 feedback boxes and you will open a new screen on which there is the specifics of the member including a contact tab.

You guys are right its complicated :-)  

Good Listening

Peter
