New Maplenoll Ariadne owner needing advice

Jdubs: 40 PSI is about right for the 'Noll tonearms. As I understand the Maplenoll Super Quiet Pumps were made in Canada and are devoid of most label/plate markings (at least mine is). They are heavy, black and football++ sized. Someone sugested that they were refrige-type pumps but I don't know that factually. The SQP is not like a most brand pumps but was a "homemade" by Bob Dilger.

Crem1, I had heard ~40psi for the arm, but am unsure of the necessary cfm at that pressure level. Any idea what's needed?

Let's keep this thread alive. I think it would be great if we could get a "new" air system that's at least comparable to the stock Super Quiet Pump.

Jdubs : I agree we should keep this thread going. Charlie

In tackling the issue of air system, i went a little overboard and got a junair compressor. It is a pretty quiet compressor but is oil based vs oil. I have a oiltrap on the outlet of the compressor and use the pulsation tubes (walker audio product) and do not have problems with oil or water getting into the table. THe compressor will service both the platter and arm but i also went with a renn air pump for the platter. this is an aquarium pump that can run continuously but only puts up about 5 psig. thats enough for the platter so i use it hooked up directly to the platter and use the junair compressor for the arm. The CFM for the compressor is approx .5cfm at 120psig. THe compressor is pricey but is built well and should last a lifetime. this compressor is used in the medical and dental industry primarily though Pluto audio uses this line for thier ultraexpensive tables. I have owned the compressor for a couple of years and have been very pleased so far

Oilmanmojo,

what are the specs on the Renn pump?
