I talked to Bill about this and he told me that my Garrard 301, having an induction motor, would not be a good match for the Sota power supply. I bought Ray Clark's (Classic HiFi) PSU from England and could not be happier. It is important though to understand what his PSU does and does not do. It regulates current and controls the speed of the platter. However, that does not mean that speed locks in in any manner. It drifts less, but it still drifts. Using a Phoenix tachometer, I get a readout of my platter speed and simply adjust the speed, when I feel the need, with the Classic HiFi PSU. One must disable the eddy brake on the Garrard to use it properly.
