Mitsubishi Linear Tracking Turntables

Hello All!

I've recently purchased an LT-30, I love the looks of this turntable and really enjoy the ease of use. I'm not sure if I've got it well setup, it sounds fantastic but am sure that I little tweak here and there would help it out. I'm wondering what others think of this table and also I would really like to find a copy of the owners manual to adjust the setup. If anybody has a copy it would be very much appreciated.

i would contact member EZEKIEL. i think randy owns one of these, services and upgrades them, and is a big fan of the vintage mitsu hi-end linear trackers. he'll be able to tell you exactly what it needs to sound its best.

I own one of Randy's LT-30s. I've had mine for over a year, it replaced an LP12, and I have a ZYX R100H on it. If you can't get ahold of Randy, email me and I'll try to help.

I owned an LT-30 in the mid 80's. It was a fine looking piece and the craftsmanship was first rate. Paired it with a Dynavector Karat 23R and QED preamp/transformer. Unfortunately, it was vastly inferior (sonically) to the Thorens TD-160 with Grace 707 I eventually bought.
Still, it was a very nice unit.

Thanks for your help. I've paired mine with a Audiotechnica Oc 9 Mk2 cart and a denon pra-2000z preamp, the preamp has 3 gold phono inputs (2MC - one uses a setup and the other a headamp). I'll try to get a hold of Randy, thanks. I've heard a TD-160 on my system, can't remember the arm though and it was comparible but not vastly better.
