Greetings Friends!
I did receive the new DC motor and controller from Mike @ the listening room.
The instructions were concise, but required cutting wires and then soldering wires near critical electronic components. All this to get a new hook up. I took another path, which was to drill out the motor housing hole which allows you to pass thru the 7/16" connector plug. If you look at the photo album attached below via Google Link you will see what I’m talking about. It worked just fine!
New motor ran a bit fast, but I adjusted it with my Cardas Frequency Sweep record with strobe label. We are back in business, but ~$700 poorer. Still less expensive that purchasing a new high quality table. As a side note, anyone know of a company that could look over my old motor controller and see if they can repair it. Would be nice to have a spare....
Be good, take care!
